Queensland State Election 31st October 2020

The Queensland State Election will be held on Saturday, 31st October.  If you don’t want to stand in line on the day, there are a couple of other options.

You can apply for a Postal Vote.  Applications for postal voting are open from Monday, 14th September to Friday, 16th October.  After receiving your application, the Electoral Commission Queensland (ECQ) will send the voting papers to you by post.  You then fill them out and return them in the envelope provided.

Alternatively, the ECQ is expanding the number and hours of operation of early voting centres across Queensland for the 2020 State general election.  Early voting will  be available form Monday, 19th October, until Friday, 30th October 2020.  A list of early voting booths can be found on the ECQ website – see link below.

This year you can have your say, the COVID-safe way through postal voting or attending an early voting booth.
