The amount of people asking to scrutineer for IMOP and the other minor parties is so appreciated! We have put together a page of information and links on our website at this address: https://imoparty.com/Scrutineers

If you are interested to find out how you can help ensure a fair and transparent ballot count, please have a read over the information.

We are asking our scrutineers to keep an eye out for the other minor parties too!

Here is an overview

WHAT: Scrutineers not only watch over the counting of the ballot papers, they also oversee the ballots being issued and collected in each polling location.

WHY: Scrutineers ensure the integrity of our voting process.

WHERE: Scrutineers can (should!) be found at every polling place and mobile polling unit in Australia.

WHO: Open to ALL Australians (as volunteers you do not need to show an injection certificate). Only one scrutineer per candidate is allowed for each early voting centre, each mobile polling team, each issuing point in a polling place on election day, to oversee each officer counting the votes during the scrutiny, and each officer engaged in counting (including persons performing the function of second tier data entry operators conducting exception checks) at the Central Senate Scrutiny.

WHEN: Scrutineers are needed for early voting (from 9th May) through to Election Day on the 21st May, and during the counting of ballots.
