The Australian Electoral Commission is reminding voters to keep an eye on their mailbox as the official guide is delivered to 12 million households across the country ahead of the Federal Election.
Australian Electoral Commissioner Jeff Pope says its crucial people plan their vote and understand how the election works.
“The official guide provides a range of information about voter options, how to cast a formal vote, what happens at the polling place, and a list of frequently asked questions,” Pope said.
“There is so much information out there about voting options so that each person can plan their vote according to their circumstances.”
The guide is also available digitally including in 34 different languages.
