The Hatchet’s Editorial Board questions the recent “legislative battle” over the election signatures bill.

To give you the cliff notes version, a bill to abolish the need for signatures for candidates to get onto the SA election ballot was passed on Feb. 4. It was then vetoed by SA President Vishal Aswani. The veto was then overridden by the Senate. But wait – the override of the veto was then contested by Jordan Chapman, Aswani’s vice president for judicial and legislative affairs (why is that position even necessary?)

Bottom line? We are back where we started before the whole drawn out ordeal – no signatures are needed.
