Several Valley students active in political affairs watched news reports as election results came in Tuesday night.
"Women are in grave danger of losing their rights over their own bodies as long as Bush remains in office," said Sharon Hollombe, Students Active in Political Affairs vice president, expressing her anger about Bush.
At press time, President George Bush held the lead in the electoral vote. "I hope Bush wins the popular vote," said Hollombe, trying to liven up the mood in the room.
"If 90 percent of D.C. voted for Kerry, that should send a message to the rest of America," said Debbie Heimowitz another student worried about the future of the nation. Associated Student Union president Levon Bagramian can't vote because he's only a permanent resident, not a citizen.
He feels frustration but encourages more people to get involved in any way possible. "I feel I've motivated enough people to vote," said Bagramian. "I thought Arizona was smarter than that."
