ELECTIONS
ELECTIONS The electoral system The conduct of Commonwealth elections is determined by the Constitution and by various Acts of the Parliament, in particular the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918. The Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) administers the legislation governing elections and referendums and conducts Commonwealth parliamentary elections and referendums. Other functions of the AEC include:
⢠the administration and maintenance of the electoral rolls
⢠enforcement of compulsory enrolment and voting
⢠administration of the public funding and disclosure provisions of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918, including the registration of candidates and parties, and
⢠the provision of advice, information and education on electoral matters.
The AEC site can be found at: www.aec.gov.au
Vo ting methods The Alternative Vote (known as Preferential Voting in Australia) is used for House of Representatives elections. The Single Transferable Vote variant of proportional representation is used for Senate elections. For an AEC description of these voting methods, see: www.aec.gov.au/_content/what/voting/ count_hor.htm (House) and www.aec.gov.au/_content/what/voting/ count_senate.htm (Senate).
House of Representatives redistributions The number of electorates in each State and Territory is determined by population. The parliamentary entitlement of a State or Territory is established by the Electoral Commissioner dividing the number of the people of the Commonwealth
(that is, of the six States) by twice the number of State Senators. The population of each State and Territory is then divided by this quota to determine the number of members to which each State and Territory is entitled. All original States are guaranteed at least five members, and the Australian Capital Territory and the Northern Territory are both guaranteed at least one member. To ensure equality of representation, the boundaries of these electorates must be redrawn periodically. A redistribution for a State or Territory is necessary when:
⢠a State or Territory’s parliamentary entitlement has changed
⢠in three consecutive months, the number of electors in more than one-third of the electorates in a State (or one of the electorates in a Territory) deviates from the average monthly enrolment by over ten per cent
⢠a period of seven years has elapsed since the previous redistribution in a State or Territory.
The drawing of new boundaries for a State or Territory is undertaken by a Redistribution Committee after the striking of an enrolment quota for the State or Territory. Boundaries are drawn so that, as far as practicable, three and a half years after the redistribution the enrolment in each electoral division does not vary from the State average by more than 3.5 per cent. There were 150 electorates contested in the 2001 election, with the entitlement for each State and Territory as follows:
NSW Vic. Qld WA SA Tas. ACT NT
50 37 27 15 12 5 2 2
Since 1984 the number of electorates in each of New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia has fallen, while the number of electorates in Queensland, Western Australia and the Northern Territory has risen.

ELECTIONS
The franchise Voting in national elections is open to Australian citizens (and British subjects on the electoral roll prior to 25 January 1984) who are aged 18 or over. Registration of eligible voters and voting are both compulsory (Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918, ss. 101, 245).
Qualifications for election to Parliament Section 163 of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918 specifies the qualifications for election to the Commonwealth Parliament. It requires candidates to be Australian citizens, aged at least 18 years, and to be an elector entitled to vote, or qualified to become an elector. However, sitting members of either House may not be chosen or sit as a member of the other House. Sitting members of State or Territory parliaments must resign from their respective parliaments if they wish to stand for the Commonwealth Parliament.
Disqualifications for membership of Parliament Section 44 of the Constitution disqualifies certain people from being chosen or from sitting as a Member or a Senator. These include persons:
⢠under any acknowledgment of allegiance, obedience or adherence to a foreign power, or a citizen entitled to the rights or privileges of citizens of a foreign power
⢠attainted of treason, those convicted and under sentence or subject to be sentenced for any Commonwealth or State law punishable by imprisonment for one year or longer
⢠undischarged bankrupts or insolvents
⢠holding an office of profit under the Crown
⢠having direct or indirect pecuniary interest in any agreement with the Public Service of the Commonwealth.
In recent years there have been a number of challenges to election results on the basis of section 44 (Sykes v. Cleary 1992, Free v. Kelly 1996, Sue v. Hill 1999) . To be eligible for nomination as a candidate for the Commonwealth Parliament, a naturalised Australian must not hold dual citizenship, or, if dual citizenship does exist, such a person must renounce the foreign citizenship.
Deposits on nominations At the time of nomination candidates must pay a deposit of $700 for Senate elections and $350 for House of Representatives elections. These deposits are refunded if a candidate gains four per cent or more of the total first preference vote, or is in a group of Senate candidates which polls four per cent or more.
Election advertising There is a three-day ban on electronic advertising prior to the election day.
Public funding and disclosure If in a Commonwealth election a candidate or group has secured at least four per cent of the first preference vote in the division or State or Territory they contested, they become eligible for public funding. Political parties and candidates wishing to participate in public funding must register with the AEC. The amount to be paid is calculated by multiplying the number of primary votes received by a candidate or group by the current election funding rate.
The funding rate for the 2001 Commonwealth election was 179.026 cents per House of Representatives and Senate vote. This rate is revised every six months to keep it in line with the Consumer Price Index. The AEC is required to calculate candidates’ and groups’ funding entitlements on the twentieth day after polling day. The total election funding paid after the 2001 Commonwealth election was $38 559 063.83.

For a candidate or Senate group endorsed by registered parties, such payments are made directly to the party involved. All registered political parties must submit annual returns to the AEC showing amounts received and expenditure incurred during each financial year and all debts outstanding as at 30 June. Broadcasters and publishers are also required to make returns disclosing election expenditure. For more details see: www.aec.gov.au/_content/how/funding_pay ments/index.htm
Parliamentary scrutiny of elections The Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters conducts inquiries into the conduct of each election, as well as conducting inquiries into specific electoral questions from time to time. The reports of this committee, as well as the publications of the AEC, provide extensive information about the Commonwealth electoral system, elections and referendums. Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters reports can be read at:

The first meeting of the 40th Parliament was on 12 February 2002.
Next election The 40th Parliament expires on 12 February 2005. The next House of Representatives election must be held on a Saturday, not more than 68 days after the expiry, that is by 16 April 2005.
Although the election of Senators whose terms expire on 30 June 2005 must be held between 1 July 2004 and 30 June 2005, the requirements of counting mean that realistically the last possible date for a half-Senate election is 29 May 2005.
A simultaneous election of the Houses can be held no later than 16 April 2005.
