How are the Results Certified?
Election Rule 6.07 determines the certification process. The Campus Elections Team begins to certify the vote once the polls close, but does not publish results until 4 business days after the polls close. The Campus Elections Team examines the voting results; ensures the eligibility of candidates, any write-in candidates, and the voters; identifies any technical difficulties with the vote and addresses those difficulties; and notifies the appropriate organizations of the results.
