...minutes of the Undergraduate Council meetings, including roll call votes, were distributed to all 88 members of the council last year and a copy currently sits in a binder in the council office. It is a matter of public record. As Lamelle said in yesterday's paper, "From the very beginning, I've made it clear to my volunteers that negative campaigning is unacceptable...

...much as those people may like you, they aren't calling because they miss you. They merely miss the function that you perform.
