The Daily Californian will be updating this page with results from the 2015 ASUC general elections. Results will come in starting at 7 p.m. from the tabulation ceremony in Wheeler Auditorium.

Voting took place April 7, 8 and 9, both online and in person. Students could rank candidates for five executive offices and up to 20 senatorial candidates on their ballots, with votes weighted proportionally according to preference. Five measures  were also on the ballot.

After first rank choices are calculated, the votes that would have gone to the candidates 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 tabulation program will not allocate any more votes to that candidate. This is because even if another candidate were to receive all other votes, they would still not defeat the candidate who reaches the quota.
