  <title><![CDATA[Cast Your Ballot in Undergraduate SGA Elections This Week]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>Students may not be on campus for the remainder of the semester, but the show &mdash; or in this case, the undergraduate Student Government Association (SGA) elections for the 2020-21 academic year &mdash; must go on.</p>

<p>Undergraduates can choose from three sets of candidates for next year&rsquo;s president and vice president:</p>

<ul>
	<li><a href="http://bettertechforall.com/" target="_blank">Vivek Garimella and Divyesh Gutta</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
	<li><a href="http://briellekyle.com/" target="_blank">Brielle Lonsberry and Kyle Smith</a>&nbsp;</li>
	<li><a href="http://killcorona2020.com/" target="_blank">Sarthak Navjivan and Michael Keohane</a></li>
</ul>

<p>The executive ticket will be selected using ranked-choice voting, in which voters rank the candidates from 1 to 3 &mdash; in order of preference, and in consecutive order. When you vote, it is important to remember to include all three sets of candidates in your ranked selections.</p>

<p>Elections are also open for the Undergraduate House of Representatives. Students can vote for their class representatives (first-year, sophomore, junior, or senior) and their academic school. Learn more about the contenders at&nbsp;<a href="http://sga.gatech.edu/elections" target="_blank">the undergraduate SGA site</a>.</p>

<p>Voting ends on Friday, April 3, at 5 p.m. The SGA elections committee will announce the results and share them on social media channels. To cast your vote, go to&nbsp;<a href="http://elections.gatech.edu/" target="_blank">elections.gatech.edu</a>.</p>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
