Vouching

Changes to the Local Authorities Election Act will now allow provisions for vouching. A voter who has shown valid identification may vouch for a voter who does not have identification if:

• The person vouching signs a statement/form that they know the person and that the person resides at the address indicated on the statement; and
• Both voters meet the eligibility requirements to vote.

A voter who has relied on vouching to validate their identity and address cannot vouch for someone else.
