Legislative Council elections 2024


Legislative Council election tagline - Your division. Your vote. Your voice.


Telephone voting

  Voting by phone is only available to electors who are out of Tasmania. This service is not available to silent electors.

If you will be interstate or overseas during the polling period, and you're unable to vote at a pre-poll centre, voting by phone may be the most accessible option for you.

How

To vote by phone:
  1. Consider your vote. Review the candidates and decide your preferences.
  2. During the phone voting service hours (see below) call the TEC on +61 3 6208 8700 and select the 'interstate or overseas elector' option. Have a pen and paper handy.
  3. The phone voting registration team member will check if you're enrolled to vote and that you haven't already voted. If you are eligible, they will ask you to write down your unique phone voting code.
  4. To help maintain the secrecy of your vote, you will then be transferred to a separate phone voting team who will ask for your unique phone voting code, and then record your preferences on a ballot paper before placing it in a secure ballot box.
