For Rabh1, not
many home
during a day of
campaigning

A CRITICAL MASS OF CYCLISTS

From Page 1A
registered voters cast their bal-
lots. Other residence halls like
South Quad and Mary Markley
had a 2.64 percent and .8 percent
turnout, respectively.
Rabhi said he's seeking to raise
those numbers with student-cen-
tered campaigning. For Rabhi,
this campaigning means meeting
voters face-to-face.
"I feel like the core of cam-
paigning is talking face-to-face,"
he said in an interview yesterday.
Rabhi spent Friday afternoon
walking down Packard Street and
Hill Street with a stack of cam-
paign literature in hand and an
eagerness to engage every poten-
tial voter he encountered.
Despite Rabhi's evident enthu-
siasm, few residents were home.
It took several unanswered
doorbells before the first door
swung open. The young man
behind it was dressed insa bright
yellow University hoodie.
Noticing the University appar-
el, Rabhi introduced himself as "a
University of Michigan student
just like yourself."
Rabhi then launched into the
details of his campaign - describ-
ing his goal to preserve Washt-
enaw County social services like
homeless shelters, mental health
care programs and health care
packages for Washtenaw Coun-
ty's lower class residents.
At some point during Rabhi's
talk with the student, several
young men walking by stopped
outside the house.
"That's Yousef," said one of

the passersby to the others. "He's
running for county commission-
er."
Rabhi turned and waved to the
passersby before resuming his
conversation with the student.
After talking with the poten-
tial supporter, Rabhi headed
down Cross Street but was met
with more empty houses.
"People must already be party-
ing or something," Rabhi said. "I
was expecting people to be home
today."
Nevertheless, Rabhi did get
to speak with several registered
student voters at their homes who
said they were excited about his
campaign.
At a house on Division Street,
University graduate student
David Weinglass said he was
impressed with Rabhi's age and
apparent drive to win.
"I think it's great seeing
(young) people out that are inter-
ested and not being apathetic,"
Weinglass said.
In a phone interview yesterday,
however, Rabhi said he's finding
it increasingly difficult to bal-
ance campaigning and his ever-
mounting course work.
"Homework takes a long time,"
said Rabhi, who's planning to
graduate this winter. "It's hard
for me to say, 'OK, I have to cam-
paign now,' because I have to
graduate."
Despite the workload, Rabhi
said he's still enthusiastic and
committed to campaigning.
"I'm still getting out there,"
Rabhi said. "It's always on my
mind."

Students and Ann Arbor residents ride their bikes down State St. yesterday as part of The Critical Mass bike ride. The ride was organized by the Ann Arbor Free Skool - an
organization that provides free classes and do-it-yourself workshops around Ann Arbor.
Jesse Jackson Jr.'s Wife: 'There
were sleepless nghts over affair

Congressman also in
hot water over ties
to Blagojevich
CHICAGO (AP) - The wife of
U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. said she
and her husband have undergone
marital counseling and spiritual
therapy since he told her nearly
two years ago of an extramarital
affair.
"He said it was over. I was mor-
tified and in agony, but he knew if
I found out any other way it would
be over. That the only way to save
our marriage was to come clean,"
Chicago Alderman Sandi Jackson
said in an interview published in
yesterday's editions of the Chicago
Sun-Times. "There were sleepless
nights and I started losing hair and
I told him I would only consider

staying if we got into therapy."
She said she immediately ques-
tioned herself and whether.it was
her fault, but she never wanted
details. When word of the affair
became public last week, she said it
was like opening the wound again.
Jesse Jackson Jr., a Democrat,
has been dogged by corruption
allegations in connection with
former Gov. Rod Blagojevich since
December 2008, shortly after
Blagojevich was arrested.
Last week, more allegations sur-
faced that Jackson told a business-
man to offer Blagojevich $6 million
in exchange for an appointment to
Barack Obama's former U.S. Sen-
ate seat. The businessman also told
the FBI he purchased plane tickets
for a woman identified as a "social
acquaintance" of Jackson.
Jackson, who has not been
charged with a crime, has repeat-

edly denied wrongdoing in con-
nection with Blagojevich.
He didn't, however, deny allega-
tions of an affair with the "social
acquaintance" and called ita "per-
sonal matter between me and my
wife that was handled some time
ago."
Messages left for Jackson on
Sunday by The Associated Press
weren't immediately returned.
In the interview, Sandi Jack-
son acknowledged empathy for
her husband, who she said "has
been quiet, withdrawn and con-
cerned."
"It's been surreal. I feel bad
for Jesse because he is living this
thing all over again. He is remorse-
ful over this fire storm he's created
around us," she said.
She also said her husband never
had an intention of running for
Chicago mayor and is instead gear-

ing up for re-election in his con-
gressional district covering parts
of Chicago's South Side and south
suburbs.
The congressman, who first
won election in his district in 1995,
previously said he's been mulling a
run for mayor since Mayor Rich-
ard Daley announced earlier this
month that he wouldn't seek a sev-
enth term.
The Jacksons have been mar-
ried since 1991 and have two chil-
dren.
Sandi Jackson said she could
never anticipate how she would
feel when her husband told her of
the affair.
"You know, when the Clintons
ran into marital trouble, I thought
Hillary should leave Bill," she
said. "I couldn't stand what Tiger
Woods did and howhis wife had to
suffer publicly.
