Club & Society Elections

• Standing will go live on this page from 10am Monday 15^th March to 10am Monday 19^th April 2021
• The form will ask you for:
  • Your details
  • Which club/society you're standing for
  • The role which you wish to stand for
  • Then some publicity (often called a manifesto) of why individuals should vote for you in that role
• You are able to stand for as many roles across as many student groups as you wish
  • If you stand for multiple roles in a group we will contact you for your preferred role in case you win multiple roles
  • Please note a single individual is not able to hold multiple core committee roles within a single student group

• We will be using a software called MiVoice. This will use the roles available provided by clubs/socs and the details submitted by individuals who are standing [Standing: 10am Monday 15^th March – Monday 19^th April].

• On the day voting opens [10am Monday 26^th April] eligible members will be emailed a unique voting link generated by MiVoice; this will allow you to cast your vote for the committee candidates. You will be able to rank the individuals in order of preference as well as RON (Re Open Nominations) [Voting deadline: 3pm Friday 30^th April]

• It is important to obtain membership before standing; otherwise you are not eligible to stand. Likewise, you will also need to obtain membership a week before voting commences, as only members will receive a voting link.
  • Membership deadline: Monday 19^th April 10am
