All local government elections are now conducted via post with ballots arriving randomly to voters from Monday 7 October until Tuesday 15 October.
You need to send your completed ballot via post by 25 October or by submitting it in person to the Port Melbourne Town Hall by 6pm on Friday 25 October.

For your vote to me valid, you MUST number every box in order of your preference. Preferences are up to you, so you have no obligation to follow any candidate’s preference list.

For example, if you were preferring candidates with a connection to Montague Ward you could allocate preferences as follows:

1 MAKIN, Alex
5 MARTIN, Peter
2 SCHWARZE, Chris
3 KNOFF, David
4 SAHAYANTHAN, Judy

Your first preference would begin with me as the only candidate that lives in the ward and then work through the other candidates.

If you have any questions about voting or preferences please contact me on 0409 136 213 or email alex@alexmakin.com.au.

Mailing your completed ballot

You can either post your completed ballot via a mailbox (a list is available here: Street posting boxes – Australia Post) or submit your completed ballot in person at the Port Melbourne Town Hall by 6pm on 25 October.

Remember that voting is compulsory and fines will apply if you do not submit your vote in time.
