To the editor,

I think it is a waste of money to eat the cost of a primary election for the purpose basically of eliminating one candidate (which is most-likely going to be me). It is not like we are trying to narrow down the choices to one Republican and one Democrat like in a United States presidential election. We are just trying to narrow it down to two qualified people for the job.

Under the circumstances, I think that is would be a better idea to just scrap the primaries and go directly to the election with three. I really don't think the students would care if there were three candidates in the political debate instead of two.

To be honest, this is the reason why I am running for President. I want to stop this frivolous wasting of the students money. This decision to have a primary is a poor decision and I think that you should reconsider it.
