Where Can I Vote? Your Guide to the 2025 Australian Federal Election
With promises of lower taxes, cheaper fuel, and home-buying assistance dominating headlines, the 2025 Australian Federal Election is heating up. But before you can weigh the merits of Labor, the Coalition, and the Greens, you need to know the most crucial step: where to cast your vote. This guide will help you find your polling place and understand the key policy promises shaping this election.
Finding Your Polling Place
To find your designated polling place, you'll need to check the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) website. This is the official source and ensures you vote at the correct location. The AEC website will require your address; once entered, it will pinpoint your polling station and provide directions.
Key Election Promises: A Quick Overview
While cost-of-living relief is central, each party offers distinct approaches:
- Labor: Focuses on tax cuts for low-income earners (reducing the lowest tax rate to 14%), significant investment in affordable housing ($10 billion for 100,000 homes), and improvements to Medicare.
- Coalition: Proposes fuel tax cuts (25c/litre for a year), tax deductions for mortgage payments on new builds, and allowing access to superannuation for first-home buyers.
- Greens: Advocates for stronger environmental policies (banning new coal and gas projects), significant changes to the tax system (taxing corporate profits and billionaire wealth), and expansion of Medicare to include dental and mental health.
Note that details on energy, education, and welfare policies are less prominent in the current campaign narrative.
