Tenzin R. Gund-Morrow ’26 and Summer A. L. Tan ’26 will serve as the next president and vice president of Harvard’s Institute of Politics, the organization announced early Monday morning.
Gund-Morrow and Tan will helm the IOP alongside newly elected treasurer Kevin Bokoum ’26 and communications director Lorenzo Z. Ruiz ’27, a Crimson Editorial editor.
Gund-Morrow and Tan — who ran as a joint ticket — won with nearly 60 percent of the vote, defeating Thomas A. Tait ’26 and Morgan Byers ’26. They succeed Pratyush Mallick ’25 and Ethan C. Kelly ’25, whose last weeks in office were marked by controversy after Mallick penned an op-ed calling for the IOP to drop its commitment to nonpartisanship after Donald Trump won back the White House.
Bokoum won with just 52 percent of the vote in the closest election for the student advisory committee’s executive team. Ruiz received nearly 65 percent of the votes.
