Announcement: Official Warning to the Hediyah Sadeq Campaign

In the interest of transparency and accountability, the Election Board will make public every time it finds a candidate has violated Election Rules and issues a sanction in response.


A complaint was reported to the Election Board that a UMBC student had promoted the Hediyah Sadeq Campaign in a student organization GroupMe chat.


The Election Board voted that per Rule #6 and Rule #17, this promotion was a violation because it occurred within a Student Organization group chat where not all members had opted in to hear the information. Furthermore, the organization had not submitted an official endorsement for the candidate’s campaign.


Consequently, the Election Board voted that the proper sanction for the violation was an official warning to the Hediyah Sadeq Campaign.


A reminder to all students and student organizations: Students may not promote an individual’s campaign in a student organization chat/social media channel but are welcome to do so on their own personal, social media pages.


Any student may file a complaint about potential violations of the Election Rules by completing an RT Ticket.

The Stewart-Tanis campaign has been found ineligible to run for the Presidential/Executive Vice President Ticket. Due to candidate(s) not meeting the minimum eligibility requirements as outlined in the SGA Constitution Section 5.3, the SGA Election Board ruled that this ticket was ineligible to run for office. This decision was appealed, and the SGA Appeals Board has upheld the SGA Election Board's decision and released that decision to the Election Board on March 26, 2019.
