This Memorandum is issued to formally inform all concerned parties of the rescheduling of the Supreme Student Council (SSC) Election 2026.

Pursuant to Memorandum Circular No. 119, Series of 2026 issued by Visayas State University, entitled “Learning Continuity Measures During the National Energy Emergency effective April 27, 2026”, it has been noted that the previously scheduled SSC Election on May 6, 2026 falls within the Synchronous/Asynchronous Week (May 4–9, 2026).

Upon careful evaluation of the entire electoral process, the University Student Election Board (USEB) has resolved to reschedule the SSC Election from May 6, 2026 to May 15, 2026, which falls under the Face-to-Face class schedule. This decision is made to ensure maximum student participation, accessibility, and increased voter turnout. The election may be conducted through a hybridized online voting system depending on the campus, wherein:

• Students physically present on campus may vote at designated precincts to beestablished by the SEB; and
• Students physically present on campus and students who are off-campus will
be able to vote through authorized mobile or online platforms.

The SEB assures the student body that all necessary electoral safeguards and processes are in place to guarantee the integrity, credibility, and validity of the election results.

Furthermore, in view of the adjusted election date:
• The campaign period for all SSC Candidates is hereby extended until May 8, 2026 at 11:59 PM.
• The Election Week shall commence on May 9, 2026, during which all forms of campaigning are strictly prohibited.

This is in accordance with the Student Election Board Code, Article VII, Section 10, which provides that campaign activities shall end at midnight prior to the election week, and that no campaigning shall be conducted during the Election Day.

All concerned are enjoined to be guided accordingly and to uphold the principles of fairness, transparency, and student representation throughout the electoral process.

For guidance and strict compliance.

The first conduct of the USSC Special Election and Plebiscite was held on September 3, 2025, at the VSU Gymnasium. However, the required number of student voters needed to meet the quorum was not reached, hence, the USSC Special Election and Plebiscite were declared null and void.

The Board initially convened on September 30, 2025, to discuss and reschedule the activity, deciding to conduct it online to allow students to participate and vote while managing their academic responsibilities.

However, several unforeseen events including the recent earthquake and the aftermath of typhoons that greatly affected our community resulted in four consecutive postponements of the USSC Special Election and Plebiscite. Given these circumstances, the Board unanimously agreed to pursue an online voting system, citing the unavailability of safe physical venues for face-to-face conduct and the series of class suspensions and disruptions experienced by the University.

In line with this decision, the Student Election Board (SEB) has resolved to conduct the USSC Special Election and Plebiscite through an online voting system utilizing Google Forms as the official platform. The USSC Special Election and Plebiscite will take place on December 12, 2025, from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, with a designated physical precinct available for students without access to internet-capable devices. The physical precinct will operate from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM at the Faculty of Teacher Education Building.

The General and Technical Guidelines for this USSC Special Election and Plebiscite have been thoroughly prepared and reviewed by the Board, detailing the provisions on voter eligibility, data privacy compliance, voting procedures, canvassing protocols, and transparency mechanisms, all in accordance with the SEB Code and the Data Privacy Act of 2012
