The College Republicans are excited to announce their endorsements for the 84th ASUN session.

All 42 candidates who are running for an ASUN Office — president, vice president, and senators were invited to attend a College Republicans meeting. Candidates were also sent an endorsement sheet that contained questions about the candidates plans to better the university and what their stances were on some issues. Of the 42 candidates, we are excited to endorse three candidates and recommend the consideration of eight other candidates for their prospective offices.

The College Republicans endorse the following:

For ASUN President: Brandon Boone

Boone contributes a lot of great ideas to making our campus more prosperous and efficient for our university students. We look forward to partnering with him to build a more politically active and aware base on our campus.

For ASUN College of Education Senate Seat:Hannah Jackson

Jackson will be at the forefront of making informed decisions for her constituents. She has a background of understanding government and knows how to get her constituents involved. We look forward to partnering with Jackson for projects, events and constituent activism on our campus.
