A legitimate referendum is basically always brought about by a party wishing for a specific outcome. It's not surprising (or wrong, I think) for the party bringing forth the referendum (i.e. writing the question) to also campaign for a Yes. That said, the whole deal with the KUS fee is scandalous. What recourse is there to declare the referendum invalid? Can the AMS do anything? Hold a counter-referendum to remove the fee?
