It is frustrating for me because it makes me look bad when 1 know 1 had those cards in on time and some of the people I registered did not get to vote.” Winn, a Democrat who was re-elected on Nov. 7, said some people in the Bryan-College Station community would not like to see students vote be cause they tend to vote straight-ticket and many believe students do not pay attention to the local elections. He said he has continually pushed for it, be lieving that the opportunity to vote is everyone’s right. Jason Denby, president of Aggies for Bush and a junior political science major, said even though Aggies for Bush are Republicans, they had no prob lems working with Winn's office. “1 haven’t heard of anybody that we registered having problems with vot ing,” Denby said. “In fact one of the ladies at the office found two cards miss ing and called me immediately so that we could get it fixed. We found them easy to work with and our turnaround for the cards was fast.” Aggies for Bush had 10 deputy voter registrars. The College Republicans had 70 deputy voter registrars.
