Assistant University Desk Editor Evely Forte spoke with Student Body President-elect Lamar Richards about what he hopes he’ll accomplish through his role as SBP, how his administration will be different from previous ones and what his legacy will be at the University beyond his role in Student Government.
Richards received 59.7 percent of the 3,219 votes cast in the election, defeating his opponent, junior Keshav Javvadi, by 851 votes, according to the results from the Board of Elections.
The BOE found Javvadi not guilty for misrepresentation and falsification because of “lack of intentionality.” However, Javvadi was found guilty for harmful or malicious behavior due to the harm that disseminated misinformation caused to the Richards campaign.
