If you know you can’t vote on Saturday 18 May, you can vote early.
It’s amazing how powerful a piece of paper can be on election day.
If you are an Australian citizen aged 18 years or over, you are required by law to vote. So, if you’re unable to make it to a polling place on election day, you can vote early at an early voting centre or apply for a postal vote.
You can vote early if you are at work on Saturday 18 May, or will be outside the electorate where you are enrolled. There are other reasons you can vote early – visit www.aec.gov.au/early to find out more.
Your vote will help shape Australia.
