Urgent Reminder for Postal Voting in Federal Election

As the 2025 federal election draws near, voters are reminded of critical deadlines for postal voting. The deadline for sending postal vote applications is Thursday, with all necessary documents required to be submitted by Sunday.

Ruth Brand, the Federal Returning Officer, emphasizes the importance of timely action, urging voters to send their election letters immediately to ensure their voices are heard. To facilitate this process, Deutsche Post assures the timely delivery of election mail.

Voters have the option to submit their letters directly at the election office if preferred. It is crucial that completed ballots are returned by 6 PM on election day, February 23, to be counted.

Therefore, voters who have already marked their ballots should act swiftly, as any delays may result in their votes not being counted.
