The next state election for Victoria will be in November 2026. The Victorian Parliament is now inviting people with disability to tell them about their experience at voting centres for state elections. What worked well, what didn't, and what could be improved? They are interested in understanding:
1. What assistance should staff offer people with disability?
2. What should be considered when choosing venues for voting?
3. How else can voting centres be made more accessible?
You can send a written submission or video recording here: www.parliament.vic.gov.au/voting-centre-accessibility (Facebook)
Submissions close on 20th of February.
