Once again CSUN Associated Students' electronic voting system failed to produce the results expected and the elections were cancelled. After spending about $14,000 on elections the system still failed. It failed because the campus consultant who built it did a bad job at it and because he left the campus he isn't here to fix it.
Then Student Affairs was left to deal with the problem, which they obviously didn't.
One of the main reasons why the Elections Committee didn't want to go through with the elections was because some of the ballots already had candidates pre-selected. Because some students wouldn't notice that, only voting for their friend the committee felt the votes weren't credible.
This came after the Sundial notified them of the issue.
Now the students who voted must re-cast their vote on Nov. 12 and 13 for their Senators. As it was 1,590 students voted almost about as much as those who voted during both days of the last election. It's highly unlikely whether they will get the same results using paper ballots.
