declare the elections as failed and disqualify isanliyab and kadiwa perpetually

we are all tired. tired of everything. tired of the drama, tired of the confusion, and tired of being the fuel for a broken system.

you are consistently failing us, office of the student involvement (osi) and student development (sdev). you cannot tell us that "abstain" is a conscious political choice and then throw those votes away when it’s time to compute the 20% turnout. as many have pointed out, your framework fragments the voter. you’re treating us like ghosts in our own election just to fit a certain narrative.

the cycle needs to end now and you should do the right thing for once!

- declare this whole election process as failed. you cannot claim legitimacy when the computation itself is legally and mathematically inconsistent with the omnibus election code.

- perpetual disqualification for isanliyab and kadiwa. this tug-of-war between these two parties has become a toxic cycle that only serves to burn out student leaders and confuse the student body. the fire of this rivalry has already set the student leaders on fire, and the students are the ones left in the smoke.

we honestly care about this university. we feel for the students because they really do deserve better. but they will never get better as long as we are forced to choose between the same two parties AND under a system that doesn't even know how to count a single ballot properly.

OSI, stop trying to patch up a sinking ship. stop forcing student leaders to kill themselves for a process that is rigged to fail from the start. it’s time to stop watching everything burn and finally put the fire out.
