The referendum for USyd to cut ties with Israeli universities passed with a staggering majority, with 4,137 students voting in the election and of that 3,554 voting YES, or 92 per cent of formal votes cast (86 per cent of all votes cast).
Honi is confident that Grace Street (Grassroots) will be provisionally elected as 99th SRC president for her second term. Election staff have not called the election yet, however the preferences from Vieve Carnsew and Emma Searle votes are likely to flow to Street.
