Nicole Stone/Assistant News Director

The preliminary winners of the SGA elections have been announced but the official results will not be available until Friday, April 13.

The results were announced at the Graham Center Pit on Friday, April 6, by Larry Lunsford, vice president of student affairs.

The preliminary results for the Student Government Council at the Modesto Maidique campus were Jose Sirven winning president with Sabrina Rosell as vice president.

The preliminary results for the Student Government Council at the Biscayne Bay campus were Jefferson Noel winning president and Jonathan Espino winning vice president.

Both presidential candidates ran an uncontested race.

These preliminary results are not official because Article VI states that sufficient time must be alloted between the preliminary announcement and the official announcement to allow for the filing and resolution of any grievances.

Additionally, a tie occurred for the second seat allocated for the Housing SGC-MMC senator position. A runoff election will take place in two weeks between the two candidates, Victoria Larson and Emoni McGregor. The first seat went to Matthew Beck.

The official announcement, according to Lunsford, will be made online on Friday, April 13 at noon.
