9:15am — Last day of polling begins! We have been blessed with cooler weather (thank God or whoever’s up there) but still stay sun safe! Currently, JFR and Fisher booths are open and they will be for the whole day. At 10:45am, the Susan Wakil Health Building booth and the Peter Nicol Russell Building booth will open. Make your vote count!
1:55pm — We know you’ve been waiting for an update! We’re back! If you’re here for analysis you can wait until the evening (look at the graphs). PNR and Susan Wakil have been quiet today, whereas Fisher and JFR are as busy as ever. Here are some shenanigans — we’ve got a few banging one-liners.
2:06pm: Voters getting riled up! Honi hasn’t received much information about regs breaches, though yesterday Penta was caught out trying to get friends and family to vote. Left Action, Switchroots, and Revive have consistently walked students over the line — Honi has seen a significant amount of voters holding How To Vote pamphlets (HTVs) at the booth, clearly voting based on what they’ve been told a minute ago.
2:46pm — As PNR and Susan Wakil near the last thirty minutes of polling, and a couple hours left at other voting booths, campaigners’ rigour is running thin and most booths look rather sparse.
3:11PM — Sike! Voting revitalises on the hour as people leave class and end up as prey to hungry hacks. Susan Wakil, however, has been a ghost town all day with a measly 34 votes since polling opened at around 10am. Fisher is buzzing again!
3:34pm — PNR voting booth has closed with a mere 48 votes. This will be concerning for the Engineers because they relied on the PNR vote to boost their numbers in the last election. Also, here is Revive accidentally pamphleting someone from CathSoc who was seen disposing of Queer Honi editions this year. Oops.
4:35pm — Less than an hour left until all polling for the 2023 SRC Election comes to a close! The sun is setting and campaigners are still walking voters right to the line. Some voting staff are commending their determination, saying they could never stand around and campaign all day.
5:15pm — Aaaaand that’s all folks! Stay tuned for analysis and keep your ears peeled for results and Honi‘s analysis. Thanks for following along! Until next time.
