Do these phrases sound familiar?
🗳️“I’m not going to vote anyway.”
👀 “I’ll register later.”
🙅 “Politics isn’t my thing.”
⌛ “I’m still too young to worry about voting.”

Here’s the thing, once the proclamation date is made, no new voter registrations or updates can be made.

What is Proclamation date: this means election is formally announced through a government gazette and legal notice. Meaning the voters’ roll closes immediately for the 2026 LGE!

Why not register as a voter NOW to keep your options open!
