What happens behind the ballot box?
Submitted by Penny on Thu, 14/08/2008 - 3:56pm.
With the Local Government elections fast approaching, Parliament's Education section is organising a course for the public about what happens ‘Behind the Ballot Box'.
The sessions are free, and include an overview of elections and voting systems around Australia and worldwide; a visit to the Legislative Assembly and Legislative Council chambers of the NSW Parliament; a voting simulation and information about the role of parliament and elected representatives in Australian democracy.
Courses will be held on Tuesday 26 August, Wednesday 3 September and Friday 12 September.
