The elections committee ensures the smooth and fair administration of ASUCD elections. The committee also coordinates publicity to encourage students to vote and puts on candidate and ballot measure forums to better inform students of election issues.
Two general elections are held each academic year. Six senators are elected on the seventh week of fall quarter and six senators and the President and Vice President are elected during the seventh week of winter quarter.
The Elections Committee is looking for volunteer pollworkers for the day of the election. Each volunteer will receive a free lunch and a free t-shirt!
If you are interested in running for office, taking out a ballot measure or recall petition, or have any questions related to elections, please email us.
