Election 2012 Guide
Welcome to the Thresher election guide. In this insert, you will find a breakdown of political views on campus as found in a survey conducted by the Thresher, editorial opinions on the two presidential candidates and summaries about candidates in major local elections. For the purposes of our voters guide, we have only included Republican and Democratic candidates due to space limitations and the fact that the vast majority of Rice students will choose from one of these two parties. For more information about third party candidates please refer to the League of Women Voter's guides or the Green, Libertarian and Constitution Party websites. All candidate positions are taken from either their official campaign websites or their responses to the questions posed by the League of Women Voters. The LWV is a nonpartisan organization with the goal of ensuring that each voter casts an informed vote.
