Voting is an important part of democracy and it is essential that citizens are aware of the options available to them in order to make an informed decision when voting. In Queensland, pre-poll in-person voting is an option that allows voters to cast their ballot before the official election day. This article will provide an overview of pre-poll in-person voting in Queensland and the steps to take in order to cast a ballot.
Pre-Poll In-Person Voting
Pre-poll in-person voting is available for those who are unable to cast their ballot on the official election day, which is the 28th of March in 2021. Pre-poll voting is available for a period of two weeks before the official election day and can be done at any of the pre-poll centres located throughout the state. Pre-poll voting is also available at the Queensland Electoral Commission (ECQ) office in Brisbane.
In order to vote in-person at a pre-poll centre, electors must present their driver’s licence or other approved identification. They must also provide their name and address, and sign the electoral roll.
