In the unofficial results posted on the Scarborough Campus Students’ Union (SCSU) website, the union announced that members of the UNIFY UTSC slate have won in all executive positions. Members of the slate ran unopposed for five out of the six elected executive positions.
The total number of votes cast for the executive positions was 484 — significantly less than the 1570 votes cast in the previous election. Considering that the SCSU represents 14,000 members, this translates into a less than four per cent voter turnout rate, compared to the 11.67 per cent of voters who participated in the election in 2021 and the 13.85 per cent who participated in 2020.
