The following are the results of the 2014 ASUC general election, as announced at Thursday night’s tabulation at 7 p.m. in the Valley Life Sciences Building.

This year’s election — which was held April 8, 9 and 10 — drew 11,926 voters to the polls, the lowest turnout since the 2011 ASUC general election. Last year’s election saw a record number of voters, with 15,430 people participating.

During the election, voters ranked candidates in order of preference. After the calculation of first rank choices, the votes that would have gone to those with the least number of votes are redistributed to whomever the voter ranked second. The process continues until a clear winner emerges.

If a candidate reaches a certain quota, the election tabulator will not calculate any more votes for that candidate. This is because even if another candidate were to receive all other votes, they would still not defeat the candidate who reaches quota.
