For almost 24 hours after the election, four EC members said that Driskell and Burton had exceeded the spending limit.
The day after the election results were released, under heavy interrogation from council members and other candidates, EC representative David L. Levy '00 changed his story.
Despite his previous claims, he said that Driskell and Burton were not over the spending limit. Rather, he said, all the EC members had been confused after a long and stressful night of tabulating election results.
But just returning campaign materials still should not have exonerated Driskell and Burton. They would have violated election rules that result in expulsion, according to the EC's Web site.
Throughout the election, Driskell and Burton have shown an uncanny ability to appeal directly to their voters.
