What does Running Mean?
Running for an election is one of the ways to get involved in USG. Under this tab, you will fund information about the positions for which you may run, the process you need to follow in order to run, and the strategies you may use to run effectively.
The Elections Commissioner is responsible for administering USG elections. This year, Will Jones (william-a-jones@uiowa.edu) will serve as the Elections Commissioner. He will ensure that the USG elections are administered fairly. Will will be a valuable resource for anyone who wishes to run. Please reach out to him with any and all questions.
