Makes you wonder how many people would vote at State and Federal elections if it was not compulsory.
Also tells me, that if you were serious about getting elected, it would not be that hard to get the numbers needed.
Cannot recall anyone calling me ever to vote for them for EFC Board, and I reckon all Candidates must get the list of Members details.
Spot on, I would suspect a fair proportion wouldn’t vote if it wasn’t compulsory.
As I mentioned earlier, the bloke in my local council area won with around 400 votes, no one can be arsed voting
I think it's a reasonable question to ask - it amazes me so few people vote
I very rarely voted before the saga started. I found it a bit strange voting someone to the board when all you’re are doing is reading a 500 word spiel that they’ve written themselves. Most people sound like winners when they do their own resumé.
It wasn’t until Catherine and Paul came along that you could actually get a little bit of a ‘feel’ for the candidate. Well done to the both of them. Hey, I just found a positive out of the Saga. Woohoo!

They don’t.
Is that right Boot ??
Must be the only election I know where the voters are secret from the candidates.
It’s a breach of privacy. Nominees definitely have no access to members details.
Well Catherine. I have stood for and won Local Government and Union Elections and run campaigns for State and Federal Government and in all cases you get a copy of the complete voter role with residential address.
Sort of limits the opportunity for voters to know what is going on and make a democratic decision. No wonder we get so few voting.
Think you owe a fair bit to BomberBlitz for your success then.

Candidates don’t get a list, but that’s something that should be look at. In 2014 I stood for election for my unions Governing Council. I was against 4 others, 2 who were the leaderships appointed ones. Well anyway I was able to get the membership list. Voting in that election was voluntary but I have been told that the number of voters was significantly higher then previous years. And by the way I did get elected/
