Hey guys, I'm Will Cheng and I'm running for Lynbrook's class of 2012's junior vice president. I am a good candidate for this spot because not only do I have experience in leadership, I am full of creative and fun ideas. I have also helped out largely in previous class events. For freshmen homecoming, I was choreographer for guys and couples dances and played the main character pacman, winning homecoming prince. This year during homecoming, I also helped choreograph guys and couples dances again.
If I become vice president, I will not only help make homecoming another large success for our class, but I will do my best to make everything next year, from rallies to J-prom…AWESOME. And, I'll bring SPIRIT to our class of 2012. You know who made, "WHAT WHO, ONE TWO!?" That’s right, I did. And you know who's gonna help make junior year awesome if you vote for him? That's right, I Will. Cheng.

Hey 2012! I'm Kunal Rathi, and I'm running for your class treasurer. I have a few changes I want to bring in the coming year. First off, I'm going to be getting a few different fundraisers started, like SAT-prep classes and continue the driver's education. Second, I'll schedule fundraisers on more convenient days, so we can send groups out at lunch and after school. And finally, I plan to get your opinion on events, from location of prom to the choice of community service for homecoming. I’m looking forward to working with all of you, and thanks for the opportunity!

I hope to be elected as your class treasurer! Although I may not have much experience, I've learned a lot about managing money, especially through the business classes I've taken. Managing money requires math skills and finance skills, both of which I have. I'm a rather frugal person, so I won't spend unnecessary money, and I'll make sure that we stick to our budget. As class officer, I hope to increase participation in all class activities, whether it is homecoming, rally setups, or fundraisers. I'm also very friendly, so anyone can come up to talk to me about new ideas.
If you know someone who is running, leave a comment and tell them to send me an email!

Very nice of you Robert.
This will be an interesting campaign in general.

It’s going to be some tough competition….
