With possibly 30+% voting for ''Others'' it is a bit harder.

What time does counting start?

The vote counting begins at 6pm.

So, at a bare minimum we will start to get election results from some time from 6pm.

Although there has been a high number of early votes this election, a new law will allow the electoral commission to start sorting votes early. From 4pm to be exact.

"We will hopefully not be up as late as in 2016 and 2019, there is a new law that permits the electoral commission to start sorting pre-poll votes by 4pm on Saturday," the ABC's Chief Election Analyst Antony Green says.  

That means staff will be able to prepare votes so they are able to be sorted and counted right away from 6pm.

"Hopefully they can get to the count of pre-polls quicker."

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-05-21/when-will-there-be-an-election-result-voting-antony-green/101075082

the 2 favourite options for Green calling the Election is 9 to 10 - $3.50 & 10 to 11 - $4
Is not A. Green on the ABC ? I do not watch the ABC, I prefer SKY with a more balanced panel from ALL sides of politics.Wink

Plans finalised. I'm going to a friends house. We're going to catch up, have a few drinks, play some table tennis and maybe check phone for results.

Each to their own but no way am I watching election coverage LOL

 Who plays ping-pong, after the age of ten...?

 another ping-pong player...Ermm

 geez...have a game of poker, or something else interesting.

 Who can be bothered picking up that stupid ball all the time...?

 I used to station my youngest under the table and she would retrieve the ball for us...

 But I'd soon get bored and switch to snooker, instead...

Those who may be thinking they can dodge voting in the Federal Election today should consider that it will set you back up to $222 and even a court appearance.

Voting has been compulsory in Australia for people aged 18 and above since 1924, and not voting is a violation of section 245 of the Commonwealth Electoral Act.

Failing to vote attracts a fine of $20, but the cost could grow if that amount isn't paid.

A spokesperson from the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) previously told Yahoo Finance Australia that ignoring the $20 penalty could see the matter land you in court and, without a valid excuse, you could be hit with a $222 fine plus court fees.

When I see those poor suffering Yanks in their lines ten minutes is luxury. But for a long time I voted in a country hall and I never ever saw another voter so ten minutes is suffering for me. Now that I vote in town I go at 5.40 and it's pretty quick.


Broke my own rule, went at 3.15 - line a mile long.

Went back at 5 - 4th in line.
