The Voting System
At USWSU we operate a Single Transferable voting system. This system, also known as STV requires voters to rank the candidates in order of preference.
Under STV, votes are initially allocated to the voters most preferred candidate. As the count proceeds and candidates are either elected or eliminated, votes are transferred to other candidates according to the voters stated preferences.
R.O.N
Voters may choose to vote for R.O.N (Re-Open Nominations) as their preference if they feel like the Candidates listed are not suitable for the position.
If R.O.N. receives the most number of votes for any position that post will be re-opened at the next ByElection.
