GA Constitution paragraph 7.e. states:
If the number of candidates remaining validly nominated for an election is less than the number of members to be elected to the Executive Committee, then -
i. the candidates validly nominated shall be declared elected unopposed, and
ii. the Executive Committee shall fill any vacancy by appointment within six months from the date the declaration of valid nominations were received. Any such appointed person shall serve until the next Executive Committee election.
All nominations have been accepted. In accordance with the Constitution, the number of candidates (3) does not exceed the number of vacancies (6) and an election is therefore not required. All candidates are declared elected unopposed.
