The elections have concluded, and your new Engineering Society ‘B’ executives have been chosen. If you have been living under a rock for the last week and still don’t know the results then I guess I’m not writing this article for nothing.
Running from Saturday November 21 to Tuesday November 24, the online voting period witnessed 1200 people answer their emails and vote. This works out to be 33.67% of eligible voters, which shattered the previous voter turnout records of terms passed. The first years turned out in droves making up 41.1% of the total votes with the class of 2013 totalling18.9%, 2012 with 18.8% and 2011 with 12.2%. Each individual department came out fairly equally, but Mechanical took the cake with 15.7% of the total vote.
With multiple contenders in 4 out of the 6 races, the election was very exciting and tense. Election Results were announced at TalEng following the entrance of The Tool. After the announcement, the new executives put on a skit to introduce themselves to members of the present engineering student body.
The new executives will officially be sworn in at tonight’s (December 2nd) Engineering Society Potluck meeting.
The results of the election are as follows.
President- Scott Rankin
Vice-President External – Kevin Ling
Vice-President Internal – Peter Kelly
Vice-President Education – Alex Hogeveen Rutter
Vice-President Finance* – Mina Labib /Jon Warren
WEEF Director – Graham Stonebridge
* Mina Labib and Jon Warren are no longer one candidate according to the policy manual so Mina will be your VP Finance starting next term and continuing through the summer and then Jon will pick up the remaining 8 months starting Fall 2010.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the outgoing exec, Colin MacPherson, and Angelo Alaimo for filling for me for class visits when I couldn’t attend. I would also like to thank all of the candidates for running great campaigns, and lastly, I’d like to congratulate the winners wishing them a very successful 16 months.
