FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (UATV) – Voting for the 2032-2024 ASG General Election began yesterday at 9 a.m. and will close Wednesday, March 8 at 4p.m.
All currently enrolled undergraduates of the university are eligible to vote.
Student Body Secretary, Kara Grace Mirando said along with any other election, it is so important to exercise the right to make our voices heard.
“It is a privilege that we have not only as people but as students at this University to vote for our future leaders and what they stand for. This is a team effort where we want to take into account as many voices as we can. It’s actually an exciting thing to be aware of and be a part of the resources, platforms, and missions that the Executive team has to offer,” said Mirando.
Candidate for student body treasurer, Allie Rosen said this year is extremely important for the student body to cast their votes.
“Voting in the ASG election is especially important this year because there are three tickets on the ballot. It is essential that the ticket elected is the one the majority of students want in office. Each student has a voice in the outcome of this election,” said Rosen
Mirando said her time with ASG has been positively unmatched and extremely sharpening.
“My team and I have worked tirelessly since November 2021 to create a space where we are continually raising the bar in every area we have the ability to access. It’s very bittersweet to think that we only have a couple months left to serve, but we are more than thrilled to welcome the new leaders of this school,” said Mirando.
Mirando said her team has set such amazing examples of what it looks like to lead with confidence, ambition, and resilience and is hopeful for the future leaders.
