Last month over 30 students from Florida A&M University conducted a two day sit-in at University President James Ammons’ office to request a formal investigation into the recent student government elections. Earlier this spring on March 19th and April 2nd, a trial was held to address irregular precinct procedures, miscounted votes, and forged signatures. Despite pressure from students, the Student Supreme Court, in a 3-2 vote, upheld the election results. The protestors were hoping their sit-in would convince President Ammons to launch an investigation into the election and facilitate a re-vote.
