==Background==
The P2b class representative election of 2013 was held in September as part of the newly established student council system at the Leo Kanner School. The school had introduced the council to encourage student participation in school affairs. Each class was allowed to send one representative, and any student could sign up as a candidate. If more than two candidates signed up, an election would be held. Voting was open to all classmates, except for those running for office.
==Campaign==
In the case of class P2b, the race featured Romain Uljee and Shady Morsi as the two main contenders. Uljee’s campaign was formal and modest in scope, centered around practical improvements—his main proposal was to extend break times, which gained him quiet but consistent support. Details of his broader platform, however, remained vague.


Morsi, on the other hand, launched a bold and theatrical campaign under the banner of the Imperial Royalist Dictatorship Party. His platform promised to "dominate the student council," which stirred controversy among students and teachers alike. Critics argued that Morsi misunderstood the purpose of the student council, which was meant to promote cooperation and represent student interests—not centralize authority. His provocative campaign style drew attention but may have ultimately alienated voters.
