Even with this year’s increase, voter turnout still lingered below 10 percent. Reasons for the continued low student-voter participation vary. Some students said they didn’t vote because they weren’t clear on either the party candidates or their stances. Freshman theater major Hayley Morinelli said she did not vote because she did not feel she knew enough about each party’s views. “A pamphlet with names on it doesn’t really tell me much about the party’s ideas,” she said. Nebraska Union polling site leader Nikki DeFrain agreed that many stu dents weren’t aware of the issues be ing considered on the ballots. “Many students, especially those living off campus, don’t know the stu dents that are running for the offices,” DeFrain said. “Many of the students voting seem to be here to support their greek organizations.” Some students who did vote veri fied DeFrain’s assumption. “I am voting today to support the people that are in my sorority house that are running,” sophomore business major Melanie Schultz said, after vot ing at Nebraska Union. But Abby Rogers, freshman bio logical sciences major, said she went out to vote because she thought it was important for students to be actively involved in the university. “It’s important to show that you have interest in university issues,” Rogers said. “Sometimes students get a bad rap for not caring about their school. If they vote, they can prove that they do care.” Aaron Steckelberg/DN ASUN SENATOR VICTORIES (unofficial results) Agricultural Sciences & Natural Resources Senators Erik L.
