Election for dummies
To participate in election activities you first have to become a student union member. As a student union member you are at the core of HHGS activities. It is the student union members that decide what HHGS should be like. Just like how the parliamentary elections can affect how Sweden is led, you in the student union elections can influence how the student union should be led. HHGS addresses the needs of the members with a focus on education, social activities and contact with the industry, among others.
To be a member in HHGS enriches your time at Handels in many ways. HHGS offers a wide range of fairs and associations you can take part in. They make sure that exciting things happen at school at all times. Within HHGS, all paths lead to the board. They ensure that all members have the opportunity to implement their ideas, realize their dreams or solve their problems. By voicing your opinion and participating in the election, you can do your part to ensure HHGS is raised to its utmost potential.
Between October 5th to October 18th, you can nominate your candidates through our website.
After the nomination period, the Election Committee will contact all nominees. From then on, you as a candidate can campaign until election day, through an hearing and other events.
Between November 6 and November 13, as a member of HHGS, you have the opportunity to vote for the candidates you wish to represent your views next year.
The results will be announced during the election night as well as through our social media channels. The election night for 2026 will take place on November 13 in Handelspuben. You can buy tickets through Orbi.
