Stein and Cheng are tied with 79 votes each; I’m awaiting word from the WSA on what happens now, and will update this when I get a response.
UPDATE: Via Elections Coordinator Izaak Orlansky ’08:
Due to the unusual nature of the tie, the Elections Committee has decided to award both Vickie and Jeff seats. In order to account for the extra seat, we will have one less at-large seat available in the fall election.

Congratulations to all the candidates!

Anon 6:08 – Go back to the voting site and log in again. You can view results. Sam got 41 with his name spelled right, 3 more spelled similar, and a few others way off (or full name). But you can’t really count the others because it could be a double vote from someone who voted for him spelled correctly. Either way, he tied or beat Mytheos.Anon 6:17 – You can vote for more than one. “votes cast” is not the same as “number of voters”

Were students allowed to vote in class elections other than their own? I’m just wondering how there were so many votes (963 for the class of ’11 alone!)
