Below is a list of the students who submitted applications to run for SGA positions in next month's election. 44 students submitted applications (up from 34 last year).
This list is preliminary. It is subject to verification by the Election Board and candidate eligibility checks, so it is possible that the ballot may not include all of these names or could include others not listed here.
Candidates who do not have listed opponents are not automatically considered elected. Write-in votes are permitted in SGA elections. Also, to be elected candidates must receive votes on at least 5% of all ballots cast.
The election will take place through Blackboard from Monday, April 19th at 12:00:01 a.m. through Wednesday, April 21st at 11:59:59 p.m.
More information, including candidate profiles, will be posted soon at www.umbc.edu/studentvote.
