Amid disputes and the inconclusive status of three of the four propositions in the 2021 ASUC elections, the Elections Council convened Monday to certify the referendum results.
The council affirmed the passage of the referendum titled Protecting the Checks and Balances of the ASUC Constitution, however, election results are only finalized upon certification by both the election and judicial councils.
The three remaining referendums the Graduate Assembly Fee, Student Technology Fee and Daily Cal Initiative did not pass, according to the Elections Council, because they did not meet the threshold of eligible student voters that UC Berkeley’s referendum policy requires. In order for a referendum to pass, at least 20% of students must vote, and a simple majority of the voters must approve the proposition, according to the policy from the UC Berkeley Division of Student Affairs.
