Vote: It's Important

In this video Cathy Freeman and David Ngoombujarra explain:

  • how to enrol, so that when a federal election happens you are on the roll and able to vote.
  • how to fill in the ballot papers correctly, so your vote will count.
  • where you can get all the help you need - so there's no reason not to have your say.

Also available: a pamphlet [PDF 722k]that outlines the main points of the video and a poster of the two presenters.

This video is set against the background of the 2004 Federal Election and has been designed as an educational resource to explain how an election is organised and conducted. It runs for 14 minutes and is suitable for groups from upper primary onwards.
