Students looking to run for a position in the Student Association, Program Board or the Marvin Center Governing Board can register their candidacy beginning Feb. 14, the University announced in an Infomail Monday morning.

Registration will last for a full week, from 9 a.m. Feb. 14 to Feb. 21 at noon.

Candidates who register will then meet with the Joint Elections Committee – the SA’s independent elections oversight body – Feb. 28 to determine ballot order.

Friday, March 4 at 7 a.m. officially marks the beginning of the campaigning period, when candidates are able to poster campus with their campaign signs.  The annual event is the first opportunity for candidates to introduce themselves to the student body through posters, advertisements, and their own logos. Putting up posters prior to this is prohibited.

Online voting will be held from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on  March 9 and 10.  Election results will be announced the same night voting closes.

If necessary, voting for runoff elections for candidates that do not earn a plurality of the vote will take place two weeks later from March 23 to March 24.  Results from the runoff would be announced March 25.

Thus far, SA Sen. Jason Kaplan, CCAS-U, is the only candidate to publically announce his run for SA President.
