Voting outcome / 選挙結果
The order of candidates will be decided according to their number of votes. The 7 candidates with the highest number of votes will be asked to accept their nomination as a member of the council. If a member does not accept or withdraws from the council, the next candidate is automatically offered to take their position. A member who withdraws can not return as a member of the council until the next election.
Priority is given to candidates such that at least two Japanese students and at least two non-Japanese students are members of the council. In any case, all seats of the council shall be filled until there are no remaining candidates.
In the event of a draw, the order of the candidates with equal votes shall be decided by a ceremonial game of rock paper scissors.
