Campaign signs for Associated Student Body positions are seen on campus Monday.
The Associated Student Body released a list of candidates for the 2014-15 academic year Monday.
Campaigning will run through this week and end on Election Day, next Tuesday, Feb. 18.
The races for the positions of vice president, judicial chair, secretary and treasurer are uncontested. Emerson George is seeking election as vice president; Jared Akers, judicial chair; Heather Neilson, secretary; and Madison White, treasurer.
Kelly Savage and Ryan Schmelz are ASB candidates for attorney general.
Jessica Brouckaert, Channing Lansdell and Davis Rogers are candidates for the office of president.
Current Attorney General Rob Pillow said that potential winter weather cancellations will not affect the election date.
“The only way the election date can be pushed back is if a technical issue with the online voting system occurs,” Pillow said.
A public debate will be held Thursday at 7 p.m. in the Overby Center.
Students can submit questions for candidates to answer Thursday evening by visiting the ASB page at olemiss.edu/asb.
While Campaign Alley will open at 6 p.m. in the Overby Center, candidates and supporters alike have begun the process of placing signage in front of the Student Union and releasing social media campaigns.
Many candidates have elected to record video messages to the student body, a trend made popular in recent elections.
The Daily Mississippian will publish a comprehensive election guide special edition Monday.
