The Daily Bulletin

From the Chair of the College Senate Bylaws and Elections Committee
The College Senate elections to fill two at-large College Senate seats (professionals or academics) close at 11:59 p.m. tomorrow, April 29. Both seats have three-year terms (2022–2025). The College Senate Bylaws and Elections Committee is again using an electronic voting system supplemented by paper ballots to conduct the elections.

Our primary goals are to encourage participation in the shared governance of Buffalo State College and to share information on each candidate. If you have not already visited the College Senate’s Elections and Caucus information site to review the candidates’ qualifications, please do so.

Voter Eligibility
All full-time academics and professionals (NU = 8; negotiating unit 8) are eligible to vote.

Voting
We urge everyone to vote electronically. Paper ballots will be sent only to voters who request them.

Electronic Ballot

• Visit the election voting portal link (log-on required), located on the College Senate’s Elections and Caucus information site.
• Log in using your e-mail username and password.
• When you log in, the system will identify the election(s) in which you are eligible to vote. If you think you have been misidentified or some other issue arises, please contact Slade Gellin, College Senate parliamentarian.
• With general questions only, please contact Vincent Masci, assistant to the College Senate, 878-5139.

Paper Ballot
Paper ballots will be sent only to voters who request them. Please e-mail Vince Masci, assistant to the College Senate, to request a paper ballot. Please provide your name and phone number. Requested paper ballots must be returned to the College Senate office by 5:00 p.m. Friday, April 29, to be counted.

Thank you for your participation in this year’s election. Please send any feedback, questions, or concerns to Ramona Santa Maria, chair of the College Senate Bylaws and Elections Committee.
