Tomorrow, August 12 2024, is the day pre-polling for the Northern Territory election opens. Many will vote before the official voting day on Saturday, August 24.

The isolation of many communities in the NT means mobile polling booths are visited around the territory. Electoral officials set up in each community for several hours, with people encouraged to vote before the temporary facilities are pulled down and moved on. Travel from one community to the next is by vehicle or plane. 

So, starting tomorrow, we are on the business end of choosing the next government. It’s on for young and old.
