The SA First Nations Voice Election is the process for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of South Australia to elect candidates to represent their community. Elected members for each region form a Local First Nations Voice. They can provide advice on laws, policies and programs through direct communication with the decision-makers.
A candidate is a person who has put their hand up to represent their community and become a member of a Local First Nations Voice.
To nominate, you must complete a nomination form and submit it to ECSA.
Nominations open Tuesday, 27 January 2026 and all documents must be received by ECSA before the close of nominations at 5pm Tuesday, 10 February 2026.
