Shull wins presidency with 13 percent voter turnout

With a 13 percent voter turnout, Pitt students elected Charlie Shull to be the next Student Government Board president.

Shull took 67 percent of the votes for board president yesterday, receiving 709 more votes than his sole opponent, Justin Romeo.

The number of students voting in the election decreased by 43 percent from last year. Out of the 16,848 undergraduate, non-College of General Studies students eligible to vote, 2,211 people submitted an online ballot.

Despite his loss, Romeo embraced Shull with a hug to congratulate him on the win.
