*RESULTS
Continued from Page 1
"It's the best election results we've had in the fall since I've
been involved in MSA," said Peters, an LSA senior.
LSA senior Barry Rosenberg, who ran for re-election
as an independent candidate, said that during the week-
end, he tried to think about the football team going to the
Rose Bowl instead of worrying about the election's out-
come.
"I am so happy to be re-elected to MSA. I definitely plan
Swork really hard," said Rosenberg, adding that he plans to
cus on academic and computer issues in the upcoming
semester.
Rosenberg and his fellow candidates had to wait longer
than usual for election results because of a ballot-counting
delay caused by a lack of assembly member participation.
Rosenberg said he attributed the relatively high voter
turnout to the option of online voting.
"I wish we had 100 percent," Rosenberg said.
"Unfortunately, it's typical of other schools and local elec-
tions across the United States."
Sarah Chopp, who ran with the Students' Party, received
*ore votes than any other candidate running this semester.
"I saw the sunrise every morning for two weeks," said
Chopp. "I am surprised especially (about the vote total) since
I am a freshman:'
Elizabeth Keslacy, who ran with the Liberty Party, said that
although she was disappointed that she was not elected to the
assembly, she is happy she had the opportunity to run.

"It wasn't so much about
winning, just to give
students another option"
- Elizabeth Keslacy
Liberty Party MSA candidate
"It was good to get another point of view to the students,"
said Keslacy, an LSA sophomore. "It wasn't so much about
winning, just to give students another option."
Derik Ma, who ran unsuccessfully with the United Rebels
Front, said he was upset with how apathetic students were
towards their student government. Ma said while campaign-
ing, he ran into many students who were unaware of the exis-
tence of MSA.
"I was really surprised more than three quarters of the stu-
dents I talked to did not know there was an MSA. It's kind of
a joke. No one took it seriously," Ma said.
Renai Jones, who ran with the Defend Affirmative Action
Party, said her party was able to change the views of a lot of
students by running in the campus-wide elections.
"We definitely made an impact," Jones said. "We could
possibly have influenced the outcome of the (impending)
lawsuit against the University," and its admissions policies.
Peters said assembly members began counting the ballots
at 9 a.m. yesterday and worked for six hours. Peters said in
the past without online voting, it would take up to three day
to count all the ballots.

POLICE

during the game.
Hall said no complaints were filed
against any police agencies and that DPS
received only one verbal complaint about
police behavior yesterday.
The officers' use of pepper spray also
brought criticism from fans in the stands
during the post-game celebration.
Peer, whose son and son-in-law are
both police officers, said pepper spray is
never used unless it is the last resort.
"An officer should only use pepper
spray if they have a damn good reason,"
Peer said. "You don't just randomly spray
the stands. Pepper spray just aggravates
the crowd, and then the police really have
their hands full."
Vice President for Student Affairs
Maureen Hartford said she assumes the
pepper spray was used selectively -
only on extremely intoxicated or rowdy
fans on the field.
"It would surprise me if DPS purpose-
ly sprayed the first rows;" Hartford said.
Hartford said the pepper spray some
fans say entered the stands may have come
from other police outlets besides DPS.

"That tends to happen at big events,
the state police and (Washtenaw County)
SheritT's Office's response can some-
times be different because they are not
used to dealing with students all the time.
There's something different that makes
them use different force."
Dave, a 1992 University alum who did
not want his last name used, said he was
disgusted by the officers' behavior.
"I was in section 34, about five rows
up from the field,' Dave said. "I saw the
whole thing. I was embarrassed to say
that Michigan was my school."
Dave said the officers' actions were
brutal and hopes the University will
investigate the incident.
"It looked as if they were out to hurt
people" Dave said. "I thought it was
funny because (Michigan football coach)
Lloyd Carr got on the field and said that
this is the greatest student body in the
world. Meanwhile, the greatest student
body in the world is getting beat up and
maced in the corner."
Regent Daniel Horning (R-Grand
Haven) said he received many calls yes-
terday from fans and alumni who were
disturbed by the officers' behavior.
"I was on the field after the game,"

H orning said. "I wt, ha-qpy with the tem-
per of the fans. They were mainlystudents
who just wanted to part of th-tion. 1
saw some things that conceme|e.
"I think DPS probably was vied the
situation would not be under cool. The
students I saw were seemingly behaving
in a joyous manner, not a violent man-
ner," he said.
Sociology Prof. Donald Deskins said
he questions police motivation.
"The issue here is, are the police here
to protect individuals or to protect prop-
erty?" Deskins asked.
Hall said officers were hit with empty
glass bottles thrown from the stands.
"Officers were hit with bottles of
whiskey from the stands," Fll said.
"People were throwing full case of beer
at the police. One officer got hifty a per-
son and ended up receiving a bitck eye."
MSA Vice President Olga Savic said
MSA is attempting to obtain DP? reports
to find out more about the day's!vents.
"It at least appeared from stands that
police officers added to the disturbance
and didn't actually do anythirigproduc-
tive to control it," Savic said. 7
