I'm Running for Class President! Options

[*Kathleen*]

Isn't that awesome? I have no chance whatsoever since five other people are running, but I'm gonna try. I'm going to campaign with my bestest best buddy in the whole world, Sarah. We can't really run on the same ticket. That's not how it works, unfortunately. But yeah, I'm not going to ask if you've run for class president before or not because I think that was already a topic, but rather, how does your school handle class presidency and whatnot? I know just to run I had to get fifty signatures from kids from my class and three teacher recommendations. Then we get our whole class to vote after we've put up posters and stuff.

[inthemudhole]

Ooh, that's really cool!
I'd be nervous to do something like that!

[Saeglopur]

Our whole school does.. you have to be nominated or something.. then we vote.. blah blah, all that stuff. Yeah, before, I was just Vice President.. nothing big.

[*tweeak*]

i havent, because everyone hates me and i have very low selfconfidence. but itd be awesome for you if you won!

and i have no clue how my school handles it...

[nyctophiliac]

i hope you lose Kathleen

[Sumiaki]

Goodluck Kathleen! I'll join the campaign trail if you want me to.

[*Kathleen*]

You know what's funny? I hate my class (well, strongly dislike), and I want them to vote for me. Meh. Oh well. That's politics, no?

[Saeglopur]

i hope you lose Kathleen

Wow, aren't you enthusiastic? Tsk tsk.

[sammi rules you]

there's only 120 kids in my grade, getting 50 sigs would be insane.

last year, at the end of 8th grade, the senior class officers came and said whoever wanted to be officers had to make a speech tomorrow and then we'd vote. of course, all the popular people won. pfft.

[ikayto]

psh class elections is nothing more then a popularity contest........if you have more homies then you have more votes..no1 cares wth you are going to do in office.......

[silver-rain]

wow, good luck! eh, i'll never be able to run for president. but, at my school, people run for president of their grade, and the students of that grade votes. at the preliminaries, we get 2 votes, but for the final, we get 1.

psh class elections is nothing more then a popularity contest........if you have more homies then you have more votes..no1 cares wth you are going to do in office.......

yeah, that's really true at my school. psh, for freshman and sophomore years, the class president/v.p did nothing.

[*RiC3xBoy*]

good luck kathleen, u seem like u could make a great president

[XxBeExOHxX]

WOW class PRESIDENT, that sounds so superior like u have so much more power than the other normal puny students.

[mznina]

[sheepy]

[kantoaznboi]

great

[*CEP*]

If it's only class officers, only the class will elect. ( IE, Freshman Class, so on and so forth. )
If it's ASB, then the whole school elects.

Freshman class officers are voted in at the start of the school year.
Soph - Senior - ASB = end of the school year.

[Spirited Away]

I wonder if you can put down cB as one of your accomplishments... I mean, you do help to regulate and maintain a fairly large online community.

not entirely - i get what hes trying to say, but i was a new student when i ran for president of student council / asb, i still won [=

[babyxyelloe]

.. and there was at least 6 other people running, so good luck kathleen!

[*Fallen_Fairy*]

oh wow thats awesome, just show them your xanga skills, you will win them over with that!!!!!
Go Kathleen

[JlIaTMK]

good LUCK! lol.... but anyways.... ive never ran for class president.... cuz we dont have such a thing lol

[patrick004]

Good luck, i'm a freshman, and today all of us had an assembly for the SGA. It's basically people who have the most popularity who'd win because he don't know anybody and the speeches aren't that serious. It's either "I'll do my best so vote for me and that's all" or braggadocio or they say things they'd do when we know they won't do it. Yeah....

[Levy2k6]

we had the same presidents 3 yrs in a row... maybe she will get re elected next year.. well w/e.. lol.

[FALLENstar009]

i would vote for you!!! well i ran for school president.. and i lost by 3 votes!!!! OMG i was soo sad but i was happy for my friend ^-^

[angel-roh]

wow congratulations, kathleen! but heh our classrooms hate being one lol they're so lazy to be one...cause they have to run down the gym.... some students classrooms is reallie far away from the gym and all...and u know it's raining and pouring...everyones sick of it... also they have to do a speech on wat they heard at the assembly-_-;;;;; i dont even want to be a class president haha

[initial-seven]

good for you, good luck

[ReBeL_BlOoD]

Funny you should add running for class president...

The school hired a bunch of kids to help change locker combos, clean up rooms for teachers and all the other good stuff janitors get to do over summer. Anyways, in one of the lockers was a pic of a grild drinking a carona. No big deal right? Guess again, she ran for president that school year, and wouldnt you know, that picture was everywhere. That will teach you to be under the alcofluence of incohol.

[sophie_007]

i wudnt..im not brave enuff >.<

[Flyingdoggurl]

I'm not a public speaker. XD And I don't like being a leader. You have to think for other people. ^_^ But I'm happy for ya

[F1R3B4T]

yea its pretty competitive... best of luck!

[laur3nw]

psh class elections is nothing more then a popularity contest........if you have more homies then you have more votes..no1 cares wth you are going to do in office.......

thats how my school kinda is

i dont think i would run for class president
a lot of responsibilities
and in my school, the people running have to make speeches in front of everyone..i hate making speeches >.<

[*kryogenix*]

wish ya the best of luck

[mouse_3k]

good luck!!! hopefully there aint some populser snobs running and it turns out to be a popularity contest -_-

im sure u will be class pres. ^^

[PinoyOtaku]

Well good luck Kathleen! I guess you got some leadership experience as a admin for a 36,948 member (as of 9:43AM Pacific Standard Time, 2SEP04, just thought I should point it out since that number isn't gonna stick... ) forum.

[casssy]

woo good luck Kathleen! Im sure you dont need it though

[LatinaLady]

i havent i dont know if theres one in my school. im way out on that. GOOD LUCK. and just get your name out so people can notice that you are running for it

[DittotoAnne18]

thats awsome, too bad my school doesnt have that kind of stuff

[sweetdreamsx3]

i hope you lose Kathleen

Wow, that's uncalled for.

My school has that kind of stuff. The people who are running bribe us by giving us candy and stuff. LMAO, don't waste too much money though because there's always the chance that you might not win. Like the people that spent more than 100$ and they lost.

Anyhoo, good luck to you. :D I'm sure you'll be a great class president.
