OUSA is going to the polls yet again, this time to find a new Finance Officer following Lucy Gaudin’s departure to the greener pastures of OUSA’s Accounts department. Critic thanks Lucy sincerely, as we have always loved covering fortnightly elections.

Voting will commence on 13 August at 9am online, and will close at 4pm on 15 August. The voting has been delayed because OUSA Secretary Donna Jones is currently on leave.

Nominations for the Finance Officer by-election have closed, with two students putting their hands up for the role. One of the nominees is even a finance student. Totes legit.

Nick Tenci

Sup guys? I’m Nick Tenci and I’d love to represent you as Finance Officer.

As a third-year Finance and Biochemistry student, I bring plenty of relevant and irrelevant knowledge to the position, and would dedicate myself to ensure that OUSA makes the best use of your assets.

Vote for me, I’ll do you right.

Ryan Edgar

I love Boogie Nights – who doesn’t? But when it becomes your regular bar there comes a time (and you may not have felt this yet, but it’ll happen) when you think, “what the fuck am I doing?” My point – we need the Cook. As last year’s Finance Officer I am in a solid position to hit the ground running and lay down a framework to ensure that you get the uni experience you deserve. Our culture is under assault and the voice of the Scarfie needs to be heard, so jump online – it just takes a second – and vote Edgar. Cheers :)

No Confidence

If none of the candidates tickle your fancy, don’t ignore the election – vote No Confidence. You’re the people these candidates are hoping to represent, and you have the right to say “no” to them. It’ll mean another by-election if No Confidence carries the day, but it’s better for the search to go on than for you to be stuck with a Finance Officer you don’t think is up to the job. And hey, sock puppets need love too.
