How to Vote in the Referendum
Participating in a referendum is a significant opportunity to influence the future of our nation.
At Australian Christians, we believe in making informed, values-based decisions that align with biblical principles and contribute to the well-being of our communities.
Below is a step-by-step guide to ensure your voice is heard in the referendum.
Step 1: Understand the Referendum Question
Referendums are conducted to decide on specific proposals that may amend the Australian Constitution. Before voting, take time to:
- Read the referendum question thoroughly.
- Explore both sides of the debate.
- Review trusted resources and perspectives that reflect your values.
Step 2: Confirm Your Enrolment
To vote in the referendum, you must be enrolled with the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC). Check your enrolment details or update them by visiting the AEC website.
Key dates to remember:
- Enrolment Deadline: Ensure your details are up to date before the cut-off date.
- Voting Day: Mark this date in your calendar to avoid missing your chance to vote.
Step 3: Know the Voting Process
The referendum voting process is simple but requires careful attention. Here’s how it works:
- Receive Your Ballot Paper: On voting day or through postal voting, you will receive a ballot paper with the referendum question.
- Vote Yes or No: Clearly indicate your response to the question by marking:
- Yes if you agree with the proposal.
- No if you disagree.
- Submit Your Ballot: Follow instructions to submit your vote either at a polling station or via mail.
Step 4: Pray and Vote Wisely
At Australian Christians, we encourage voters to approach this decision with prayer and wisdom. Reflect on how your vote will impact future generations and our nation’s Christian foundations.
Consider:
- The implications of the proposal.
- Alignment with biblical principles of justice, freedom, and truth.
- Advice from Christian leaders and organisations.
