Voters will have the option for the first time ever to cast their ballot via the post for the February 12 by-elections, due to the number of Omicron cases.

NSW Electoral Commissioner John Schmidt has told Ray Hadley voters still have a choice when voting stating, “The choice is theirs”.

With previous technological problems on the state’s iVote system, Mr Schmidt campaigned to allow all voters to be sent a postal voting pack.

“The face of elections in Australia has changed dramatically over the last few years.”

” I expect our use of postal votes here to be very closely watched by other jurisdictions.”
