Fresno State’s Associated Students Inc. (ASI) pushed back the petition date for the 2021-2022 ASI elections to Feb. 19.
The voting results were 10 in favor, two opposed and six abstained.
The 2021 ASI election petitions were adjusted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This allows candidates to submit petitions to run for office without the need to obtain nominating signatures.
According to ASI policies, 25 signatures are typically required in order to run for a senator position, and 50 signatures are required to run for an executive office.
