This page provides information about the TEC's Impartial Assisted Voting service, including how it works, where and when it's available, and how to make a booking.
A link to an accessible version of the candidate statement booklets will also be provided on this page from 31 May.
Impartial Assisted Voting is a professional, confidential and impartial voter service that is available to electors who require assistance completing a postal ballot.
Electors can book a 30-minute period on selected dates during the polling period for these Glenorchy City and Sorell by-elections, and the Glenorchy City elector poll.
The TEC employs independent, professional and experienced polling staff to assist electors with the voting process.
Electors using the service should bring with them the ballot pack they received by post. If the elector does not have their ballot pack, staff may assist them in applying for a supplementary ballot pack.
Once the voting process is complete, the staff member can assist the elector to place their completed postal vote in the ballot box onsite.
If required, there is the option for voters to receive car-side assistance. This means the voter can remain in their vehicle and vote while in the car with assistance from the staff member.
Glenorchy electors can vote at Glenorchy City Council offices and Sorell electors can vote at Sorell Council offices. The TEC's Moonah office is also available for both elections.
Bookings are required. You have three options:
Voters are strongly encouraged to have considered their voting preferences before arrival at their appointment. The candidate statement booklets are now available from the links below, in an accessible format.
