There had been 3,061 votes casted in the Student Association elections as of 5 p.m. Wednesday, accounting for 21.5 percent of the student body, Board of Elections & Membership Chair Tracey Ford said.
That is up from the 2,630 votes that had been cast in last year’s elections as of 5 p.m. on the third day of voting, Ford said.
Syracuse University students can vote for president and vice president, comptroller and assembly representatives. Eric Evangelista and Joyce LaLonde and Charlie Mastoloni and Jessica Brosofsky are running for president and vice president, respectively.
Malik Evans, James Franco and Kevin Gonzalez are running for comptroller.
Also on the ballot are resolutions for two bills: one on the decision process for prospective cabinet members and one on the establishment of a director of diversity affairs within SA.
Voting is open on MySlice and closes Thursday.
