However, without access to registered voter lists indicating where people cast their vote, re-allocating polling places to new electorates is an imprecise science, especially when polling places need to be split between electorates. Comments and suggestions on the transfer of polling places are most welcome.

At 90.16%, this was nearly 3% below that of 2014 and the lowest turnout since 1945. This is addressed in the report but it does reflect the wider situation in Australia. It may in part be a consequence of the very high enrolment participation existing in Victoria where, through direct enrolment action, 96.60% of the estimated eligible voting population is enrolled. The 2018 State election was notable in several areas. At the close of roll, over 4.14 million electors were registered to vote – an increase of over Foreword 333,000 electors in a four-year period, in turn increasing the demand for voting services across Victorian electors went to the polls on 24 the State.
