The election was rerun after a protest was filed involving the election for the office of AAUP second vice president. By action of the AAUP Election Committee, which was affirmed by the Election Appeals Committee, effective August 24, 2018, the election for the office of AAUP second vice president was set aside and a new election was ordered.
Since this was a rerun election, it involved the same two candidates who were included on the initial March 2018 ballot, and there were no nominations. The election followed the provisions of the AAUP Constitution and the modified version of the AAUP Election Rules approved by the AAUP’s national Council in September.
In accordance with the modified election rules, ballots were mailed to eligible members’ home addresses beginning October 17. In order to be counted, completed ballots had to be received by December 6.
