Two days from the close of petitions, more hopeful ASSU candidates and special fees groups are nearer to or past the minimum signature threshold.

On Wednesday, the Election Commission said one executive slate, that of juniors Thom Scher and Stephanie Werner, had secured 200 valid signatures and would appear on the April 8 ballot.

Juany Torres was the first Undergraduate Senate candidate to reach the ballot, also on Wednesday.

The only special fees group to be validated for the ballot so far is SPOON.

In other ASSU news, the Constitutional Council last week ruled that votes former Senator Daniel Limon ’12 cast during winter quarter were invalid, and said the Senate should recount each of those votes. Limon took a personal leave of absence fall quarter, and did not formally rejoin the Senate when he returned to campus.

The group’s major votes winter quarter related to special fees funding policies, but the canceling of Limon’s votes does not appear to have any signficant impact on those votes’ outcomes.
