The Student Government elections’ office confirmed the Fall 2025 Senate election is uncontested for the second year in a row.
“Unopposed senator candidates shall be declared the winner by acclamation and shall not be placed on the ballot,” Supervisor of Elections Asvidhi Ladumor said in a written statement.
Ladumor’s statement echoes the election code, which states that if none of the running Senate candidates are contested, SG must call off the election. Section 602.8 C 7 of the election code reads: “Unopposed senator candidates shall be declared the winner by acclamation. No election for the respective seat shall be held.”
