2011 Local Government Elections 1 2 Tasmanian Electoral Commission Introduction This report provides a summary and analysis of the 2011 Tasmanian local government elections conducted in accordance with the Local Government Act 1993 . The structure of this report is similar to previous years. The main report contains general information on the elections, statewide statistics, a summary of all mayors, deputy mayors, councillors and examples of election material, but does not include detailed election results for each council. A separate 2011 election report booklet has been produced for each council. Each booklet includes a report for the particular council, including a graph displaying the number of first preference votes received by each candidate, the distribution of preferences in tabular form and a list of all candidates contesting the 2011 elections. The booklet also contains information about any by-elections held since October 2009.

Background Tasmania’s biennial local government elections were held in October 2011. Elections were held in all 29 municipal areas for the positions of mayor, deputy mayor and half the councillor positions 1, together with by-elections for 8 casual councillor vacancies. A total of 283 candidates nominated for a total of 147 councillor positions, 62 candidates nominated for 29 mayoral positions and 76 candidates nominated for 29 deputy mayoral positions. As only one candidate was nominated for each of the vacancies, polls were not required for— • Mayors of Central Coast, Circular Head, Dorset, Flinders, Kentish, Launceston City, Northern Midlands, Southern Midlands and Waratah-Wynyard Councils, and • Deputy Mayors of Central Highlands, Flinders 2, King Island, Latrobe, Sorell, Tasman and West Tamar Councils. The next biennial elections are scheduled for October 2013. The Tasmanian Electoral Commission (TEC) provided a candidate information booklet for the 2011 elections that provided practical information on such matters as nomination, advertising, voting and scrutineers. Information booklets for printers, publishers and broadcasters were also available, providing practical information for the media and those who produce election campaign material. Copies of these booklets are available from the TEC or the TEC website www.tec.tas.gov.au.

Conduct of elections These were the ninth biennial elections held under the Local Government Act 1993 , previous elections having been held in 1994, 1996, 1999, 2000, 2002, 2005, 2007 and 2009. The Act provides that the Electoral Commissioner is responsible for the supervision of elections, and is to undertake some specific tasks such as the production of ballot papers, forms and both statutory and public awareness advertising. It also requires that the Commissioner approve some forms and procedures and appoint returning officers.

1 Hobart City has a Lord Mayor and Deputy Lord Mayor; councillors in Tasmania’s six cities are known as aldermen 2 The successful candidate was not elected as a councillor and was unable to accept the position of Deputy Mayor

2011 Local Government Elections 3 In 2011, all councils requested the TEC to take full responsibility for the conduct of their elections. Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) staff were appointed as returning officers under a contractual arrangement.

Postal voting The Local Government Act 1993 introduced universal postal voting as an option for council elections. Following successful postal voting trials in 1994 and 1996, the Act was amended in December 1998 to require all future elections to be conducted by postal ballot. The 3-envelope system was again used in 2011 to ensure the secrecy and security of the ballot. This system involves an outer window face envelope, a reply paid envelope and a ballot paper security envelope with an extended perforated flap for voter details and signature. This information is required to verify that only eligible electors vote. In addition to the envelopes, the postal ballot pack included the ballot paper(s) and an information brochure containing voting instructions and candidate statements. Sample ballot material is reproduced at the back of this report.

Enrolment People who were on the State electoral roll for an address within the municipal area were automatically enrolled on the local government roll for that area. Others who owned or occupied land in a municipal area but who were not eligible to be on the State electoral roll for that area were entitled to apply to enrol on the general manager’s roll. Corporate bodies which owned or occupied land in the municipal area were also entitled to nominate a representative to the general manager’s roll. A total of 366,906 electors were enrolled in the 29 councils at the close of rolls at 6pm on 15 September. These comprised 357,648 (97.48%) from the State roll and 9,258 (2.52%) from general managers’ rolls. In the period 11 –14 October, all electors received postal ballot packs in the mail. Enrolment statistics for each council are shown in this report.

4 Tasmanian Electoral Commission Public awareness & statutory advertising The Local Government Act 1993 provides that the Commissioner may promote public awareness and understanding of elections, and encourage enrolment and voting. A statewide advertising campaign was conducted on television and radio and in newspapers to create awareness of the elections and encourage participation. Regular press releases gave progressive updates on the number of ballot papers returned for all councils and other mileposts in the election process. TEC staff gave numerous interviews. Under the Act, the Commissioner is also required to place prominent statutory advertisements in newspapers to advertise election dates, call nominations, list candidates, notify ballots where required, and to advertise the results of ballots conducted. As at previous elections, the TEC provided a freecall telephone enquiry service. In addition, information was available on the TEC website www.tec.tas.gov.au. The availability of the freecall service and the website were promoted extensively in our advertising campaign, and appeared on information brochures sent to each elector with ballot papers. A feature of the 2011 elections was a postal ballot kit produced for school students to develop an understanding of local government elections, which was distributed to 29 schools across Tasmania. Associated resources were prepared for the TEC’s Civics, Citizenship & Tasmania website. While the main purpose of the project was to engage tomorrow’s voters, it is hoped that students’ interest may also have encouraged adult family members to participate in this year’s elections. The project was funded through a small reduction in discretionary press advertising.

Electoral system Voting in Tasmanian local government elections is not compulsory. All elections for councillor positions are conducted using a system based on the Hare-Clark method of proportional representation used in Tasmanian House of Assembly elections. Under the Hare-Clark electoral system, ballot papers are redistributed at either full or fractional transfer values. Due to the relatively small number of voters in some local government elections all votes are calculated to 2 decimal places to reduce the loss of votes by fraction. The introduction of amalgamated transfers in 1998 has made this issue less significant. The Robson rotation system is used to rotate the order in which candidate names appear on ballot papers for councillor, mayoral and deputy mayoral elections. Mayors and deputy mayors of all councils are popularly elected in conjunction with councillor elections. These elections are conducted using a preferential electoral system similar to that used for Tasmanian Legislative Council and federal House of Representatives elections. Councillor scrutinies were conducted utilising the ‘HC Auto’ computerised scrutiny sheet to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the count. This system was developed in Tasmania and has been used successfully at local government and House of Assembly elections since 1996.

2011 Local Government Elections 5 Tally-room & election results A state tally-room was set up at Tattersalls Park in Glenorchy and operated from 7 pm until 11 pm on Tuesday 25 October. Provisional first preference results for all positions were progressively displayed on tally boards throughout the evening. The media, candidates and the general public were all invited to attend this event. It provided an opportunity for candidates to give media interviews, and a venue for the local government community to discuss results as they became available. Progressive results were also displayed at counting centres in Launceston, Burnie and Devonport. The majority of election scrutinies were completed on Wednesday 26 October, with the more complex scrutinies being completed on Thursday 27 October. The actual time required for each scrutiny varied considerably and was largely dependent on the number of voters, the number of positions vacant and the number of candidates contesting the election.

TEC website—www.tec.tas.gov.au Progressive results were posted on the web as they became available from 7.00pm on Tuesday 25 October. In nearly all councils the results were posted within 15 minutes. The TEC website includes information on current and past local government elections.

Cost of elections The average cost per elector increased from $3.44 to $3.65, an increase of 6.1% since the 2009 elections, the same as the Hobart consumer price index (CPI) for the two years ending 30 September 2011. The actual cost per Council varied, due mainly to the number of contested elections and the numbers of candidates, which affect the complexity of the scrutiny and the size of candidate statement brochures. The percentage return of ballot papers and the number of electors also affect the relative cost. Since the 2009 elections, the elector population has increased by about 1.1% across Tasmania, which increases the actual total cost to councils. While some savings were made in printing and materials costs, labour and postage costs increased substantially over the two years.

Response rate 54.28% of local government electors across the state returned their ballot material at the 2011 elections. This compares with 55.00% in 1994, 59.48% in 1996, 55.66% in 1999, 57.78% in 2000, 57.86% in 2002, 58.52% in 2005, 57.43% in 2007, and 55.54% in 2009. A number of factors influence the response rate. These include the number of positions vacant, the number of candidates contesting the elections and local issues at the time. Smaller councils also continue to show higher response rates as demonstrated on the graph on page 12. The Tasmanian response rate compares favourably to the two other states which conduct non- compulsory local government elections by postal ballot, South Australia (32.88% in 2010) and Western Australia (33.35% in 2011).

6 Tasmanian Electoral Commission Casual vacancies A casual councillor vacancy is generally filled by recount unless it occurs within 6 months of a forthcoming ordinary election. A candidate elected at a recount serves until the next ordinary election. Mayoral vacancies occurring more than six months from the next ordinary election are filled through a by-election. Any associated councillor vacancy is also filled at the by-election. If a councillor vacancy cannot be filled by recount, a by-election is held. All councillors elected at a by-election serve the remainder of the term of the original councillor. If a vacancy occurs within 6 months of a forthcoming council election, the vacancy is filled by a by-election held in conjunction with the council election as necessary. Eighteen casual vacancies occurred between the 2009 and 2011 elections. Eight vacancies were filled by recount, 3 through by-elections, and 7 were filled at the 2011 elections as they occurred in the last 6 months prior to the 2011 elections. A summary of recounts and by-elections appears on page 32 of this report.

Elector polls A council may hold an elector poll on any issue it determines. It may also be required to hold an elector poll following a process requiring petitions signed by at least 5 % or 1000 of the electors in the municipal area, whichever is the lesser (as set out in Part 6 of the Local Government Act 1993 ). A council is not bound by the result of an elector poll. No elector polls were conducted between the 2009 and 2011 elections.
