Electors need to vote for two houses in Parliament. First, voters are required to vote for the House of Representatives, which will be a green form to vote for a representative for Calare.

Voters will be required to number boxes from one through to seven for their vote to count, with one being their first preference and seven their last.

To vote for the Senate, voters will receive a long white ballot paper. Voters can either place a number one in a box above the line for the party that is their first preference, or number all boxes below the line.
