SA LOCATIONS: Early voting in Voice referendum from 3/10


With the date announced for the 2023 Voice referendum, here is everything you need to know about how to vote, where, and what happens if you don’t.

Referendum date:

October 14.

What is a referendum?

A referendum is a nationwide vote to change the Australian Constitution. For a referendum to pass, a national majority of voters, as well as a majority of voters in a majority of the states (at least four states) must vote ‘yes’ to the change.

What is this referendum about?

The Indigenous Voice to Parliament Referendum is a vote on whether we want an alteration to the Constitution that establishes an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice.

What is the question?

A Proposed Law: to alter the Constitution to recognise the First Peoples of Australia by establishing an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice. Do you approve this proposed alteration? Yes or no.

Where can you vote?

You can vote at any polling place on voting day. Like the State election, polling places will be set up at local schools, churches and community halls, or public buildings. The locations of these polling places will be available on the AEC website. Polling places open between 8am and 6pm.

Will the referendum polling booths look like state or federal election polling booths?

Pretty much, yes. There will be polling booths, placards and likely democracy sausages on offer, but as there is just one question that requires a yes or no answer, it will be much faster.

Early voting begins next week: Make sure you plan your vote

Where can I vote early?

Postal voting, early voting and mobile polling will also be available for the referendum. Early voting opens in South Australia on October 3. You can find your nearest early polling station here.

Can I be fined if I fail to vote in the referendum?

Yes. Voting is compulsory for Australian citizens aged 18 years or older. If you do not vote and don’t have a valid and sufficient reason, you may be fined. The AEC will write to you at the address listed on the electoral roll and ask you to provide a reason why you did not vote. It is at the discretion of the AEC’s Divisional Returning Officer (DRO) for each electorate to determine whether you have provided a valid and sufficient reason for not voting. The DRO will consider the merits of your individual case and take into account any specific circumstances at the polling places within their division in making a determination.
