Voting rules
Voting in the student elections is taken extremely seriously, and abides by all rules laid down in the Students' Union constitution (see Schedule 5 - The Rules for the Conduct of Elections, part 8, Voting).
ATV
The UPSU Elections use the ATV voting system instead of the more commonly-known "first past the post" system. You can find out more about it here.
