AESES-UW Ratification Vote Updates – Voting Period Extended

THE UNIVERSITY OF WINNIPEG RATIFICATION VOTE UPDATE

The voting period is now closed.

The voting period has been extended through the weekend to Monday, February 23 at 2:00 pm.

We are aware that some members have not received their voting links yet, while others have already received their messages and voted. Voting emails have been sent from Simply Voting and have reached The University of Winnipeg mail servers, but are being delivered slowly due to the University’s spam filtering system.

If you haven’t received your voting email yet, please note that it should arrive shortly as the messages continue to be released from the filter.

With this in mind, we have decided to extend the voting period through the weekend to Monday, February 23 at 2:00 pm. This will allow all members to receive the email and participate in the vote. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to resolve the issue.

Thank you for taking the time to participate in the vote.

AESES-UW Bargaining Team
