Australian Electoral Commission
The Australian Electoral Commission is calling on all Aston residents to check their enrolment details without delay as Monday’s enrolment deadline for the by-election rapidly approaches.
AEC State Manager for Victoria, Nye Coffey said it’s imperative that Aston residents who have recently turned 18 or are new to the area ensure they’re enrolled correctly before 8pm on Monday 6 March.
“If you’re not enrolled by the deadline on Monday, you won’t be able to vote and there are only a couple of days left,” Mr Coffey said.
“If you live in the federal division of Aston you can enrol, or update or check your enrolment details online, at aec.gov.au.”
“If Aston residents know they won’t be able to make it to a polling place on Saturday 1 April, it’s important to start planning for that now,” Mr Coffey said.
“Early voting centres will be open from Monday 20 March but for those people who can’t make it in-person at all, postal voting applications are available from aec.gov.au/aston now.”
“If voters intend to vote by post, they should apply for a postal vote now,” said Mr Coffey.
“For people who need a postal vote, it’s important to apply as soon as possible and to apply directly through the AEC online.”
Voters can apply for a postal vote now on the AEC website, until 6pm Wednesday 29 March 2023.
