Treat everyone else as an individual and real person. If this were not what amounted to a pointless election and therefore a dumb prank, there could be real consequences. Some jackass screwed around with his high school election, sure, I don't think a severe punishment is in order. Suspension? Detention? Sure, whatever.
You think that individual's individuality is supposed to somehow put him in front of everyone else affected by his actions? Or is it the fact that someone is interested in STEM, that makes them special?
There is sometimes a victim of actions (in this case, other people running, other people voting). You write as if they don't matter or exist.
