Why should I vote?

Voting is one of the most important ways you can make your voice heard on issues that concern you.

Decisions are made on your behalf every day, by various tiers of Government.  The decisions ranging from what is happening in local schools and what recreational facilities you have, to national issues like healthcare and education, to global issues like defence and the environment.

A strong and stable democracy relies on people using their votes. By voting, you can hold your elected representatives accountable.

Make sure you have your say. Votes are power.
