A University of Waikato student has issued an apology over a line he used to win votes in his student union election.
"If I had one vote for every girl on this campus I've shagged, I would get this role easily," bragged Alex Winiata, in student rag Nexus Magazine.
Winiata, who works at a clothing store, made the comment in a Waikato Students Union candidate profile.
He is running for election for one of eight student director positions on the WSU.
But his boast caused outrage in the university's student community
