By

SESP junior Neal Sales-Griffin and Weinberg junior Mark Crain will compete in a run-off vote for ASG president on Thursday. They were the top two vote-getters in Tuesday’s round of voting.
Sales-Griffin got 40.1 percent of the vote, and Crain got 23.3 percent of the vote. They beat out Weinberg junior Blake Yocom (14.8 percent), Weinberg junior Scott Burton (15.1 percent) and Weinberg sophomore Luke Adams (3.5 percent) to advance. “No confidence” received 2.4 percent, while 0.7 percent of voters wrote in a candidate.
With 61.7 percent of the vote, Communication sophomore Mike McGee will be academic vice president, defeating Weinberg junior Usman Mian, who received 28.9 percent.
Neither Weinberg junior Hariharan Vijayaraghavan, with 37.7 percent of the vote, nor McCormick sophomore Nate Perkins, with 46 percent, won a majority of the vote for student services vice president, though they were the only two candidates. They’ll go to a run-off on Thursday as well.
With 80.9 percent of the vote, Vikram Karandikar beat out a vote of no confidence to win his unopposed race for executive vice president.
ASG reported that 3,196 students, or roughly 41 percent of the undergraduate student body, voted Tuesday.
More to come.
