If someone votes at two different polling places within their electorate, and places their formal vote in the ballot box at each polling place, their vote is counted.

We cannot remove the vote from the count because, due to the secrecy of the ballot, we have no way of knowing which ballot paper belongs to which person. However, the number of double votes received is incredibly low, and usually related to mental health or age.

People can vote multiple times and the votes will be counted which is from the AEC.

We have seen how unhinged leftist yes voters are it's just luck on whether they get away with it.

The links are from the AEC.

Be nice if there was actually a way of preventing people from voting twice. Wink

These votes mostly go to about 0.01% of the votes and still it is all analysed and if the number of votes can impact the result of the election it can go to a by-election.

Quote:

38. In addition to identifying cases for possible prosecution, or declaration under the designated voter provision, the AEC examines all detected cases of multiple voting in each division after the election to determine whether the level of multiple voting possibly exceeded the margin by which the candidate was elected. If this is the case, the AEC will consider disputing the election result by petition to the Court of Disputed Returns under s. 357 of the Electoral Act as outlined below.

Quote:

Kean v Kerby (1919)
John Kean challenged the election of Nationalist Edwin Kerby, who had defeated Labor's Charles McGrath by just 1 vote. Isaacs J held that there were a great number of official errors causing disfranchisement of electors. This included the "almost incredible carelessness" on the part of more than 20 local Presiding Officers who had certified that the voter had signed the declaration before him in circumstances where the voter had not signed the declaration at all. The election was declared void and McGrath defeated Kerby in a by-election.

...Well, I could go to, say, 15 polling booths and vote 15 time under someone's name. At the end of they day, they will identify that someone voted 15 times but they will not be able to identify and remove the actual ballot papers with the fraudulent multiple votes. Those fake votes would stay counted.

Not so Frank. You're identified by both your residential
address, and your name on the Electoral Roll.

You therefore couldn't cast a ballot 15 times. And this
silly concept makes me think you don't understand the
checks and balances in the AEC's fraud detection system.

And no; of course the fake votes wouldn't be counted LOL.

If they're unlucky enough to get caught the votes are still counted.

There will be no by elections on this voice vote.

This needs to change. There has to be a system in place to turn people away when they have already voted to prevent them from voting again. It doesn't have to affect ballot paper it has to prevent them from being handed another ballot paper.

Exactly.

Donkey votes are counted, but informal votes (dick & balls) are not.

For the people in this forum who think the informal votes are counted, I strongly suggest they volunteer to scrutinise a count in any upcoming election.

I've done it about 8 times now, and I can assure you that nothing dodgy gets past the scrutineers (made up of people from all parties, as well as the AEC).

Yes but if there are enough votes to impact the result it will trigger a by-election.

Anyone voting multiple times under their own name will be caught.

I don't think it has a snowflake's chance in hell. People multiple voting will be no factor at all as usual.

Let me tell you about Albo! He's a trickster - a cosmic joker.... he likes to watch!! First he comes up with the idea for a voice... then ... for his own cosmic amusement he sets the rules in opposition!! He says look - but don't touch until we tell you! Listen - but don't hear any ways it might work! Here are the full details - and you never see or hear them! Answer ONLY with a YES or NO - but use a tick if you want, but never a cross!!! And while you're down here jumping from one foot to the other - I swear - he's up there laughing his sick fluking head off!

Vote for that? NEVER!!

Informal votes you mean?

They’re not included.

Usually 'Donkey Votes' go to the Party in Power.
So does this mean, the YES (via ALP) crowd get to benefit from the Donkey Votes.
...now an 'informal vote', say someone scribbles "get stuffed" on it - could also be considered a 'donkey vote' to the advantage of the YES/ALP???

A donkey vote goes to whichever candidate is on the top of the ballot paper.

It does not usually go to the party in power. FFS, who told you that crap?

A donkey vote is when someone numbers the boxes in order starting with 1 at the top and working their way down 2, 3, 4, etc.

A donkey vote is a valid vote, and it goes to whoever has the box at the top.

An informal vote is something completely different, and they go to nobody.

Stop spreading bullshit.

FFS, how are people this stupid? Roll Eyes

Definition: A donkey vote occurs when an elector simply numbers the ballot paper from top to bottom (or bottom to top) without regard to the logic of the preference allocation.

A donkey vote is counted as a valid vote because it contains a number “1” and has numbered every square in sequential order.

Many people believe that donkey votes are informal. This is not true.

A donkey vote is counted as a valid/formal vote. Provided the voter has marked the number “1” against a candidate and numbered the other candidates in order of preference, the vote will be counted.
