Vote KEG

The Maryland Cow Nipple, the humor newspaper at the University of Maryland, has been running a hilarious campaign to overtake the SGA. Their platform is based on a long series of ridiculous promises, like "Free parking for textbooks", "Strengthen honor code through intense weight lifting", and "All fire alarms to play Highway to Hell". They even got one of the cartoonist for the campus' daily newspaper, the Diamondback, to feature KEG party candidates in the strip.

Ricky, the KEG's party candidate for SGA president, has been going to all of the presidential debates. An actual quote from yesterday's debate at the Black Student Union:

MODERATOR: "How would you improve minority retention within the SGA?"
RICKY: "Candy."
MODERATOR: "Mr. Gonzalez, if you can't be serious, we're gonna have to ask you to leave."

The results are being announced today. Where can you check out this madness and mayhem? Right here.

UPDATE:
The Keg Party came in 5th out of 5 parties, but they got a respectable number of votes.
