Houston Summers is the new Student Body President elect at UNC.
Voting was extended into Wednesday due to the winter weather on Tuesday.
Summers won the election with nearly 65 percent of the vote while runner-up Kathryn Walker received 35 percent. A runoff between Summers and Walker was held after neither candidate received a majority in the general election.
Summers will take over as Student Body President at Carolina on April 1.
