Tomorrow morning, 13 UA students will wake up and partake in their normal morning activities. The only difference is they will no longer be an ASUA candidate, but an elected student body officer.
Today is the last day of the 2003 Associated Students of the University of Arizona general election. Students can go online to vote for student body president, administrative vice president, executive vice president and senators until 8 p.m. Winners will be announced an hour later at Gentle Ben's on East University Boulevard.
Students may also access the voting ballot at a kiosk set up on the north side of the Student Union Memorial Center.
Student votes will not just determine who will take office; the ballot also includes a referendum to extend the $1 KAMP student radio fee for another five years.
"We want to make sure that voting is fair and students are involved," said ASUA Elections Commissioner Jason Korner.
Candidates will continue to campaign on campus by means of golf cart, bike and T-shirt, among other things.
The presidential candidates are J.P. Benedict and Jered Mansell. The administrative vice presidential candidates are Victoria Ruan and Daniel Suh, and the executive vice presidential candidates are Scott Cheney and Melanie Rainer. There are also 20 students running for senate.
