Election Briefing

March 1: CMNSU announced the application opening for the SFSS Council & Faculty Representative. Candidates were allowed to begin campaigning once they received notice that their application had been received. 

March 8: The application period ended.

March 13: CMNSU promoted the 3 candidates’ platforms via Instagram stories. 

March 15: The virtual polls opened for voting via SFU Websurvey**.

**Please note that when the virtual polls opened, they were open to all SFU students until approximately 4 PM on March 15th. This was raised as an issue by CMNSU members by which the CMNSU changed the restraints of the Websurvey to allow only CMNSU members* the ability to vote thereafter.

March 16: Voting closed.
