The Machine runs the school, but it doesn’t stop there. They are well intertwined with state government and even Federal government. It goes way back, like all things at this school. There are a few times in school history where a non-machine candidate has won SGA. Very rare though. Non-member houses have had members run, usually without success. For example, ATO had a candidate a few years ago, but he lost. Joe Scarborough (yes the one with the tv show) tried to run against The Machine when he was here, he lost. This is why he despises the Machine and will even bring it up on his show. He clearly isn’t over it, bless his heart. The Machine is just part of life here and it prob always will be. They can be beat, it just takes the hell of a fight and strategy.
