Are you enrolled for the election?
The Federal election date should be called soon - and 24 hours after it’s announced, the electoral rolls will close. It used to be that you had a week to check that the Australian Electoral Commission had you on the list at your current address, but earlier this year the Coalition passed a law shortening that time to just one day. If you’re not enrolled correctly, then you can’t vote.
So, please, check your enrolment details now at the AEC Enrolment Verification website and update them if you’re not registered correctly. Get in ahead before the election is called and everyone swamps the website!
