We are happy to publish the final summary of our expenses and funds raised during the recent Graduate MLC Election campaign (June 2012) We have more detailed reports and receipts at the office for anyone interested in reviewing them in person. Though there was no formal requirement to submit these to the Election Commission and there is no prescribed expense limit for MLC Election, we will be submitting the income and expresnes statement to the electoral officer. At Loksatta, we believe that the root cause for corruption lies in election funding. Traditional parties and candidates spend vast sums of money without ever listing the sources or the expenses which will always be 'under the limits' magically! Loksatta fought for years to bring in campaign finance reforms (gathering dust on paper) and as a Political party always published annual statements. We would like thank all of you for being part of the campaign, many of you for several months, and going over and beyond the call of duty, your passion for new politics and change is inspiring and this election made a mark in our city; 16% vote share is a significant victory in itself and our vote share in urban areas has been noticed. We certainly hope more leaders will come out to contest and more of us will join in to support these next generation leaders that treat politics as a means to public service and not for private gain. This election gives hope for those willing to contest elections without black money and without buying votes. Srinivas Alavilli and Shanthala Damle Campaign Managers for Dr. Ashwin Mahesh Loksatta Candidate for Graduate MLC Election 2012
