UW vote put off till Monday

Balloting was supposed to restart Thursday in the Associated Students of Madison elections after a computer glitch stalled the three-day process, but elections officials now say it will not begin until next week.Initial turnout was heavy in the elections, which featured a referendum asking students whether they want to spend an additional $192 per year each from their student fees to rebuild Union South and renovate the Memorial Union.

Students will begin voting on referendum questions again at 8 a.m. Monday, and will be able to vote through 8 p.m. Tuesday, said Tim Leonard, chairman of the Student Election Commission.
