Tuesday, April 22, 2003Ripe For AbuseChris Hummel below, and Frank Webb over on Dartmouth Observer, both point out how ludicrous this teapot scandal over campaigning is. Frank hits on an important point:Amazingly, it seems that at Dartmouth, a candidate is responsible for the actions of his supporters.It's important to think about this a bit. How hard is it to imagine an enterprising -- and unscrupulous -- candidate plastering public areas with flyers for his opponent, who will be punished as a result? This policy practically invites fraud. I know the elections are irrelevant, but I fulminate against policies like these for a living.
