Elections for the Associated Students University of Idaho kicked off last week with two presidential campaign announcements.
Former ASUI Sen. Kallyn Mai and Director of Legislative Affairs Katie Hettinga announced their campaign on Instagram March 30. The pair is running for ASUI president and vice president, respectively.
ASUI Vice President Joseph Garrett and Chief of Staff Julie Attinger also announced their campaign March 30 on Instagram. Garrett is running for ASUI president and Attinger is running for vice president.
Mai and Hettinga’s campaign will focus on three aspects of student life: community, innovation and excellence. “We will lead the movement to create better days for Vandals,” their slogan states.
Garrett and Attinger’s campaign will focus on “engaging UI students with opportunities, connecting students to educational resources and uniting the student body.”
Coinciding with the presidential race, a new batch of ASUI Senators will be elected. A list of candidates has not yet been released.
Voting will take place April 19-21. The winners will be announced at the ASUI meeting April 24.
