Candidacy is approved pending confirmation of good academic standing.
The newly-elected senate will choose one person from among the 25 candidates to fill the seat at their meeting April 10. Five other write-ins were elected, and all 19 senate candidates on the ballot were elected. All write-in candidates must be proven to be in good academic standing, said Election Commissioner Hrant P. Hratchian. With 141 votes, Delaware, Ohio, sophomore Laura Russell was the top vote-getter. Russell said she didn't do any campaigning.
