CORRECTION: This article was corrected on March 31 at 10:50 p.m. CDT. It previously stated that the Vanderbilt Divest Coalition endorsed Morinville/Kearns. While their platform indicates support for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions, Morinville/Kearns did not receive an official endorsement from VDC, which is not a registered student organization.
VSG’s election commission announced on March 28 that juniors Hananeel Morinville and Ellie Kearns won the 2024 VSG presidential election, earning 50.35% of the vote. The Sevaan/Warner ticket earned 42.42%, while the Morales/Norman ticket earned 6.74%.
The announcement follows an indefinite suspension of the election period after the eligibility of the Morinville-Kearns ticket was internally called into question. After arguments on the subject were heard by VSG’s Judicial Court, a new one-day campaign period was initiated, effectively delaying the election by one day.
