How to complete your ballot paper
When voting at a First Nations Voice election you will need to complete a declaration vote, this means you will sign a declaration saying you are Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander to be able to vote.
You will then be given a ballot paper showing all the candidates for your region.
To vote, you must write a number 1 in the box next to the name and photo of the candidate who is your first choice.
You can choose more candidates if you want by writing more numbers in the other squares, starting with the number 2.
Remember, it’s your choice how many candidates you vote for.
Make sure your vote counts!
- Remember, use numbers only
- Don’t use ticks and crosses
- Check carefully to make sure you haven’t repeated any numbers or missed any numbers.
- If you make a mistake, just cross it out and write the correct number next to the square.
- And if you need any help, just talk to a member of staff.
