Running a bunch of people for senate is actually a good strategy. If each person running with the party can get their friends to vote for them and get most of them to vote for the other people in the party right after them all the votes will be transferred as people are dropped. SQUELCH! uses this to great effect. They even put their serious senate candidates at the top and bottom of their senate order so people who rank them in ballot order will get their votes to start on the serious candidates. DAAP will probably focus their flyer efforts and outreach on electing one person, but they will use the candidacy of the other people to draw people to polls and get as many transfer votes as possible.

Why is DAAP being so stupid? They can't move enough votes to carry all those senate candidates. They should just have one candidate to focus votes on and that person most likely would carry. Splitting the vote means none of them will get in most likely. …Forced Unlawful Campus Knowledge?
