" Platform & Initiatives Taste of Hillsborough: • How many of you knew what businesses were on Hillsborough Street your freshman year. Or even now as maybe a senior? Hillsborough is the front door of this university and should be somewhere students are familiar with. Taste of Hillsborough is a new program I want to implement in the fall. I will work with Hillsborough businesses, NC State and the city of Raleigh to close down the street for a night and give businesses and students a chance to meet. Students will be able to sample food from all participating businesses for a nominal fee or hopefully even free. Along with this will be music and other activities that allow students to meet one another and put some life back into Hillsborough Street! Hillsborough Business Guide Book: • To compliment the Taste of Hillsborough event I want to print a magazine that contains the menus of every business on Hillsborough Street relevant to NC State. These books will be distributed to the residence halls and also available in all participating restaurants. Students will be able to find the menus for all of the restaurants in one place without ever having to make a phone call. • Along with all of the menus this magazine would have coupons for restaurants and a list of discounts throughout the Raleigh / Cary area that are available to NC State students. Many of which students are not aware of. "
The rest of his platform can be seen there... but whoever wins, I think hillsborough street should have more a of college feel and just not suck as much in general. I just cast a vote for Cody Williams for SBP to that end.
"I really hope my boy Will Quick wins this shit, " "we had to SCRUB that shit off." " My boys and I have already gone around washing this stuff off of as many bricks as we could "
If this thread is serious, then quick supporters have gone around erasing as many of Cody's chalk messages as they could. Langely's campaign made attack ads against both candidates which are floating around tdub, and Quick supporters are trying to get rid of other peoples campaign messages. I think Cody's campaign atleast deserves some credit for not mudslinging and tearing up other ppls campaign stuff.
lol langley got violations, amongst many others, for greek organizations spamming ppls e-mail to vote for him which is against the rules (they even sent one to quick). and he might even get in trouble for trying to offer ppl good executive positions for sweeping this violation stuff through quickly.
"Langley also had a complaint filed against him for door-to-door soliciting in Tucker residence hall.
Dan Barber, freshman in First Year College, said Langley was going to rooms on the second floor of Tucker around 10 p.m. Monday night asking if residents had voted and who they voted for.
"I asked him if he'd gotten permission to go door-to-door and he said he doesn't, 'go by those rules,'" Barber said. "
Langley said he doesn't go by the rules, and for the potential violations I mentioned before, the elections committee is looking into disqualifying him. I think they will meet Friday at 9 pm to discuss it. No results for a while then for SBP.
