General Postal Voting
So, the federal election has been called and will be held on 21 May. A while ago, I encouraged a friend who lives with anxiety to register to become a general postal voter, which means she gets all her election ballots posted to her, and she fills them out and posts them back, and she doesn't have to front up to a polling booth ever again in her life, which makes voting much, much easier for her! She received the help of her GP in filling out the necessary form, I think, but it doesn't seem to be mandatory that you have to have proof from a medical professional.
If your mental health makes the actual act of voting at a polling booth difficult for you, consider registering for a postal vote!
