2014 Local Government Elections 1 2 Tasmanian Electoral Commission Introduction This report provides a summary and analysis of the 2014 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 2014 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 tabulated form and a list of all candidates contesting the 2014 elections. The booklet also contains information about any by-elections and recounts held since October 2011.
Background Tasmania’s local government elections were held in September-October 2014. These were the first all-in, all-out elections conducted since the enactment on 20 June 2013 of the Local Government Amendment (Elections) Act 2013 and the making of the Local Government (Number of Councillors) Order 2013 , the Local Government (Number of Councillors) Order 2014 and the Local Government (Elections) Order 2013 . The effect of these was to defer the elections, originally scheduled for 2013, until 2014 when all councillors and aldermen, and mayors and deputy mayors, would be elected for a four year term ending in 2018. The terms of office of councillors elected in both 2009 and 2011 ended in 2014. There was also a reduction in the number of councillors or aldermen to be elected to nine councils in 2014. These reductions were as follows: Council 2011 number 2014 number Central Coast 12 9 Derwent Valley 98 Devonport City 12 9 Glamorgan-Spring Bay 98 Glenorchy City 12 10 Kingborough 12 10 Southern Midlands 97 Tasman 97 Waratah-Wynyard 10 8 Elections were held in all 29 municipal areas for the positions of mayor, deputy mayor and councillor. A total of 482 candidates nominated for a total of 263 councillor positions, 91 candidates nominated for 29 mayoral positions and 143 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 Highlands, Dorset and George Town. Nor was a poll required for councillors of Central Highlands as the exact number of candidates nominated for nine councillor positions. As only eight candidates had nominated for nine positions on Latrobe Council by noon on 29 September 2014, those candidates were declared elected. New nominations were then called for one unfilled position, and six candidates nominated for the single position. This election ran concurrently with the other ballots.
2014 Local Government Elections 3 The Flinders Council close of poll was adjourned by 48 hours to 10 am on Thursday 30 October 2014. The next elections are scheduled for October 2018. The Tasmanian Electoral Commission (TEC) provided a candidate information booklet for the 2014 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.
Conduct of elections This was the tenth round of elections held under the Local Government Act 1993 , the most recent having been held in 2011. The Act provides that the Tasmanian Electoral Commission and the Electoral Commissioner are responsible for the supervision of elections, and are 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. In 2014, 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 2014 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 above envelopes, the postal ballot pack included the ballot paper(s), and an information booklet containing voting instructions and candidate statements. For the first time, the information booklet contained passport-style photographs of candidates, and candidates contesting both councillor and mayor or deputy mayor were restricted to a single statement. In 2014 candidates were required to submit their statements and photographs on-line. This seems to have caused few difficulties, and resulted in substantial labour savings. Sample ballot material is reproduced at the back of this report.
Enrolment People who are on the State electoral roll for an address within a municipal area are automatically enrolled on the local government roll for that area. Others who own or occupy land in a municipal area but who are not eligible to be on the State electoral roll for that area are entitled to apply to enrol on the general manager’s roll. Corporate bodies which own or occupy land in the municipal area are also entitled to nominate a representative to the general manager’s roll.
4 Tasmanian Electoral Commission A total of 375,355 electors were enrolled in the 29 councils at the close of rolls at 6pm on 18 September. These comprised 366,398 (97.61%) from the State roll and 8,957 (2.39%) from general managers’ rolls. In the period 14 –17 October, all electors received postal ballot packs in the mail. Enrolment statistics for each council are shown in this report.

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. Clemenger Tasmania developed a new statewide advertising campaign for the 2014 local government elections. The campaign featured the slogan “Make your mark” and utilised television, radio, newspapers and digital media to create awareness of the elections and encourage participation in the postal voting system. Regular media releases gave progressive updates on the number of ballot papers returned for all councils and TEC staff were available for 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 free call telephone enquiry service. In addition, information was available on the TEC website at www.tec.tas.gov.au. The availability of the free call service and the website were promoted extensively in our advertising campaign, and appeared on information brochures sent to each elector with ballot papers. Following the success of the two animations produced for the 2014 House of Assembly elections, the TEC again commissioned local digital marketing agency Small Island Studio to produce an animation to help explain the postal voting process used for Tasmanian local government elections. The animation encouraged electors to be “secret heroes” by voting at these elections.
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.
2014 Local Government Elections 5 Under the Hare-Clark electoral system, ballot papers are distributed at either full or fractional transfer values. Due to the relatively small number of electors in some local government elections all votes are calculated to two 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. Manual counts of councillor elections utilised the ‘HC Auto’ computer system 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. In 2014, the TEC anticipated that the move to all-in, all-out elections was likely to create some fields of candidates so large as to make manual counting of councillor elections virtually impractical. With additional funding provided by the State government, and assistance from the Victorian Electoral Commission and the University of Tasmania, the TEC adapted the VEC ‘Computer Count’ system for use in the ten most complex councillor elections. This involved the ‘double blind’ entry of the numerical sequence on every ballot paper into a database, which was then used to calculate the election outcome without the need for any further manual handling. ‘Computer Count’ elections had the advantage of publication of progressive distribution of preferences figures, and, in the event of casual vacancies, will also be able to be recounted without any further manual handling. ‘Computer Count’ proved very cost-competitive with manual handling: the impediment to its general adoption will be sourcing sufficient data entry operators and terminals.
Tally-room & election results A state tally-room was set up at Tattersalls Park in Glenorchy and operated from 5pm until 11pm on Tuesday 28 October. Progressive first preference results for all positions and the distribution of preferences for some mayoral positions were 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 other counting centres in Launceston and Devonport. The majority of election counts were completed by Thursday 30 October, with the more complex counts being completed on Saturday 1 November. The time required for each count varied according to the numbers of positions vacant and candidates contesting the election.
TEC website—www.tec.tas.gov.au Progressive results were posted on the web as they became available from 6.00pm on Tuesday 28 October. In nearly all councils the results were posted within 15 minutes. The TEC website includes information on current and past local government elections.
6 Tasmanian Electoral Commission Cost of elections The average cost per elector increased from $3.65 to $5.59, an increase of 53.15% since the 2011 elections. The actual cost per Council varied, due to the number of contested elections, the numbers of candidates and the response rate, which affect the complexity of the count and the size of candidate statement brochures. Since the 2011 elections, the elector population has increased by about 2.3% across Tasmania, which increases the actual total cost to councils. The one-off increase in cost per elector is directly attributable to the move to all-in, all-out elections and consequential larger fields of candidates. In general terms, Councils have paid 150% of previous costs, but elections are now held half as often. That is, over a four-year term, Councils will pay only 75% of their previous costs of elections.

Informal voting A comparison of informal voting between the 2011 and 2014 elections shows a marked increase in the rate of informality. This is particularly disappointing in the context of elections where participation is purely voluntary. Some level of informal voting, generally reflected in blank ballot papers, occurs where a voter only wishes to participate in one or two of the three available elections, and is no cause for concern. Perhaps unsurprisingly, informality peaked in the elections for the three cities which retain 12 aldermen, Hobart (7.47%), Launceston (6.19%) and Clarence (5.68%), and the category which seems to have ballooned is repetition of numbers in the required sequence. It seems reasonably clear that larger fields of candidates and a longer required sequence of preferences have contributed to informality rates. Parliament and the local government community may wish to consider reducing the required sequence of preferences (perhaps 1 to 5, as for the House of Assembly), or allowing a ballot paper with a sequencing error to be counted to the point where that error occurs (a ballot paper with two 7s could be counted as far as its sixth preference).
Express voting It has been difficult in the past for Tasmanians travelling interstate or overseas to participate in local government elections during the relatively brief polling period. Amendments contained in the Local Government Amendment (Elections) Act 2013 now allow absent Tasmanians to participate by returning a signed declaration and ballot papers by e-mail. 131 Tasmanians successfully participated in the 2014 elections by this means.
2014 Local Government Elections 7 Casual vacancies A casual councillor vacancy is generally filled by recount unless it occurs within 6 months of a forthcoming 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. A candidate elected at a recount or by-election serves until the next council election. Vacancies occurring within 6 months of a forthcoming election are not filled. In 2014, there were also some vacancies that were not filled due to a reduction in the number of councillors for some councils. Twenty casual vacancies occurred between the 2011 and 2014 elections. Eleven vacancies were filled by recount and four through by-elections. Five vacancies were not filled due to a reduction in number of councillors for some councils and/or occurrence within 6 months prior to the 2014 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 2011 and 2014 elections.

Ballot paper envelope (front)
Ballot Paper Envelope • After you’ve voted, put your ballot paper into this envelope and seal it. • Sign the declaration flap on the other side and leave it attached. The Returning Officer will remove it before opening the envelope. • Put this envelope into the Reply Paid Envelope and post it straight away.
For your information… This ballot paper envelope has been specially designed to ensure the secrecy of your vote. All returned envelopes are kept unopened under tight security until they are checked for validity. After the close of the poll and all the sealed envelopes have been verified, the flaps showing each elector’s personal details and signatures are removed by the Returning Officer, in the presence of witnesses, before the envelopes are opened. Still in the presence of witnesses, the separated and now quite anonymous envelopes are opened in large random batches before the unidentified ballot papers are finally removed for examination and counting.
