Ways to vote

Elector polls are conducted by postal ballot. Clarence City Council electors will each be sent a ballot pack in the mail. While voting in an elector poll is not compulsory, the TEC encourages all electors to have their say.













Where's my ballot pack?

Ballot packs were delivered to electors by Australia Post between Wednesday 10 and Friday 12 July.

If you haven't received your ballot pack, you can collect a new pack from your council and vote while there.








Absent voting

If you will be away from home and unable to receive your ballot pack during the polling period, you can request a supplementary ballot pack be sent to an alternative address in Tasmania, interstate or overseas.

 Applications for a supplementary pack to be sent by post closed 4 pm Friday 2 August. You can still visit your council to collect a new pack before the close of poll, 2 pm Thursday 8 August.

If this option doesn't suit your situation, learn what happens next  

Under the Local Government Act 1993, there is no provision that allows us to provide alternate methods to postal voting.


Replacement ballot packs

If you haven't received your ballot pack by mail delivery on Monday 15 July or require a replacement ballot pack, the following options are available:

  • From Monday 15 July, visit the Clarence City Council, 38 Bligh Street, Rosny Park (8:30 am - 5:15 pm weekdays) to collect a new pack. There is a TEC issued ballot box there for lodgement. Ballot packs must be lodged in the ballot box before 2 pm Thursday 8 August. Please keep this in mind when planning your visit.

What happens if I am unable to vote?

If you didn't receive your original ballot pack and you were unable to obtain a replacement, please don't advise the TEC. Voting in this poll is encouraged but not compulsory.

Accessible information and services

With the support of the Clarence City Council, the TEC will be providing an impartial assisted voting service for those who require assistance completing a postal ballot.
