summary

This resolution clarifies and strengthens ASUC election bylaws to increase transparency in candidate affiliation. It specifically amends ASUCBL 4202 and 4203 to prohibit political parties from using informal systems like waitlists or provisional status to extend their influence beyond the maximum of eight Senate candidates. This ensures voters are fully informed about who they are voting for and prevents covert exertion of influence by well-resourced parties.
