Averell Hit with Election Violations

Nevertheless, Averell said that he plans on continuing to actively campaign in the coming days--including through a show in the Hasty Pudding Theater tonight called "Vote for Me: The B.J. Averell Story."

Stephen N. Smith '02 and his running-mate James C. Coleman '03 have the second most violations with 11 total deductions, six of which were assigned last night, limiting them to spending $79 on the campaign.

The commission chastised the Smith-Coleman campaign last night for postering near a computer kiosk. Election rules prohibit signs near computers since the council's voting is done online.

The commission also handed down five points of violation penalties against the campaigns of Paul A. Gusmorino '02 and Sujean S. Lee '03 last night for illegal postering, bringing their campaign total to seven points.

Justin A. Barkley '02 and Adam M. Johnson '02 have a total of two points in violations, but none were assigned last night.

The campaign of Matthew Zanotelli '02 and John F. Bash '03 received its first penalty for violations last night, four points for illegal postering.

The violations, which affect the amount a candidate can spend on the campaign, are subtracted from the 50 points each is given at the beginning of the campaign. A candidate who receives 50 points in violations is disqualified.
