After some fumbling about with formatting and compiling and all that computery nonsense that cripples the best of plans, the manifestos can now be downloaded below. They’re in one handy PDF so you can scroll through everything, so give them a read if you haven’t yet scoured them outside the HUS Office.

Click here to download candidates’ manifestos (PDF file).

Also, the minutes from the previous Open Meeting are available from the Democracy page, along with the agenda for the upcoming meeting. One of the things we need to do at this Friday’s Open Meeting is approve the minutes of the last meeting – please try and have a look, as we won’t be providing paper copies on the night (we love trees). We will be providing copies of the agenda though, so by all means have a look at that, but no need to print off your own copy!

We now have candidates for the position of Sports & Societies Officer, bringing the total number of people running to a whopping 25. It’s the most number of people we’ve ever had running during one election period (though my figures only go back as far as when we moved to entirely online voting), and still would be even if we hadn’t had to reopen for Treasurer. Congratulations for showing a real keenness to get involved!

The additional nominees are:

Sports & Societies

• George Jenkins
• Ted Levermore

Don’t forget to come to hustings at 7.30pm on Friday to help decide who you’re going to vote for.

Also, apologies about the delay, but the manifestos will be online (and probably emailed out) tomorrow morning. Some slight formatting issues are what’s holding us up…
