Students show support for mail-in ballots

October 27, 2020 by Richard Mejia 524 Comments

This year's presidential election is currently ongoing as citizens continue to turn in their ballots. Mail-in ballots have been around for a while now, but many people are just now realizing it as an option. Voting in person has been something most people did every election year and hundreds of people would gather to get into small polling areas and exercise their rights to vote. Due to the ongoing pandemic, some consider voting in person a risk. Many people have considered, and are still considering, voting by mail to avoid such big crowds. That way, they can feel safe while they vote, including students here at CSUSB. Jesus Estrada, a fourth year political science major … [Read more...] about Students show support for mail-in ballots

Student candidates campaign via Internet

April 29, 2020 by Yera Nanan 201 Comments

The 2020 Associated Students Incorporated (ASI) Elections are underway, but the road to victory for candidates has been an uphill battle as cyber campaigning has become the new norm. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, candidates have marketed themselves through various social media platforms and Zoom meetings. Though campaigning has become completely digital, this hasn’t changed the morals, values, and identities that students are choosing to campaign for. “It’s just a learning curve for how we are going to do what we would usually do on a virtual platform. Marketing is going to be a struggle,” said Presidential candidate Sage Keyner. Keyner has been involved in ASI for … [Read more...] about Student candidates campaign via Internet

Hearing from candidate William Pearce

October 29, 2019 by Michelle Gamez 663 Comments

Riverside County is preparing for the upcoming election. There are multiple issues that the county is currently facing such as the Riverside Transmission Reliability Project, homelessness, and city debt. The United States' local government is commonly known as the hidden government because many residents have no knowledge of their local representatives. Citizens tend to follow the Federal versus the local government without considering the impact that local government has on local citizens. "I love to serve in the community and because I grew up here almost my whole entire life, I thought this would be a neat way to give back to the community," said William D. Pearce, one of the … [Read more...] about Hearing from candidate William Pearce

The bathroom law

April 25, 2016 by Archived posts 132 Comments

By Shirleena Racine Baggett |Staff Writer| Men, women and the other? That tends to be the way our country classifies its population. This division making headline news is in regards to which bathroom we should go into in public. According to Monash University, sex refers to biological differences, internal and external sex organs, while gender describes the characteristics that a society or culture defines as masculine or feminine. In other words, sex is biological and cannot be argued upon, and gender has been cultivated into picking and choosing which traits fit one’s personal identity. North Carolina’s Gov. Pat McCrory signed a bill which states that a person should go into the … [Read more...] about The bathroom law

Media bias clouds presidential election

February 2, 2016 by Archived posts 68 Comments

By Serena Gomez |Staff Writer| Media coverage of the 2016 presidential election has created an ideal model of who I do not want as president. Bernie Sanders, Ted Cruz, Hillary Clinton, and Donald Trump are all significant to the election, but for some reason we hear more about Trump’s horrific words and actions than any other candidate. According to CNN, Sanders said, “you explain to me how a major network on the evening news has 81 minutes of Trump, 20 seconds of Bernie Sanders. Does that make sense to anybody?” The media is biased and creates negative images of certain political candidates, but Trump is using every second of it to his advantage. “FDR was the first ‘radio’ … [Read more...] about Media bias clouds presidential election

By Aimee Villalpando |Staff Writer| The Vatican was divided on the last day of the recent Synod, in a vote on whether the church should change their approach in dealing with non-traditional families. In the two week Synod, a council of the church, bishops from all over the world gathered in Rome to discuss modern family-related issues. The Synod's final report shows votes on three articles related to the divorced/remarried couples and that the welcoming of homosexuals did not attain the required two-thirds majority vote among the 183 voters, according to the Huffington Post.

Proposition 40 Redistricting State Senate Districts

October 26, 2012 by Archived posts

By, Brenda Acuna |Staff Writer| In an unusual and confusing move, backers of Proposition 40 have recently withdrawn their support. Just recently, backers of the referendum wrote in the official state ballot pamphlet that they are no longer soliciting voter support. Proposed by Republicans, Proposition 40 was submitted to overturn the State Senate districts drawn last year by the Independent California Citizens Redistricting Commission. According to the Orange County Register, advocates against the measure “had hoped the new districts wouldn’t be used in elections this year because of the pending measure. But in January the California Supreme Court ordered state election officials … [Read more...] about Proposition 40 Redistricting State Senate Districts
