Easier Electronic Voting for Military Abroad
This act aims to simplify voting for military personnel and uniformed services members deployed abroad in locations with limited postal service. It introduces the option of electronic voting, ensuring their full right to participate in federal elections, regardless of their service location. This means citizens serving in the military will be assured their vote is cast and counted.
Key points
Introduction of an end-to-end electronic voting system for military and uniformed services voters abroad, including registration, ballot request, completion, and return.
Ensuring voters can verify their ballots are received and tabulated correctly, and creating an auditable vote trail for recounts or audits.
Implementation of the system in a trial group in 2024, and for all eligible voters from 2026 onwards.
