...during the two hours I table for council elections, I quite literally talked to one hundred different people. I have no idea what Rokhsar or his "witnesses" think I said, either to voters or to friends of mine who came to talk...
...think it was too much to ask Rokhsar to state his accusation so that I may defend myself. Rokhsar apparently though differently on this matter, or else was preoccupied with finding material for his letter to the editor...
...Rokhsar further compared my alleged actions to something he "expected to witness in elections in a remote Middle Eastern dictatorship [are there elections in dictatorships?] like Syria, and not on the campus of an elite learning institution." I urge Rokhsar to keep things in perspective. If we are indeed students of an elite learning institution, one would think Harvard students have more intelligence and character than to blindly vote for someone because I supposedly told them...
Judging from Rokhsar's own words and actions, he is hardly the person to question the professionalism of the council elections. Should he have any problem with me in particular, I suggest that he address me personally. His use of The Crimson as a springboard for a personal attack only makes both parties look bad and does not solve the problem if the primary intent is to increase election fairness...
