You don't have to wait until election day
Election day
Saturday 28 November, 8 am to 6 pm. Vote at any voting centre in your district. Voting is compulsory for everyone enrolled.
Early voting
Wednesday 18 November to 6 pm Friday 27 November. Open to anyone who cannot get to a voting centre on election day — including work, travel, caring duties or illness. MVM volunteers will be at early voting centres with flyers.
Postal voting
Applications open Wednesday 4 November and close at 6 pm on Wednesday 25 November. Apply through the VEC, then post your completed ballot back. Do not leave the application until the last week.
Telephone-assisted voting
Opens Wednesday 18 November. For voters who are blind or have low vision, or who cannot vote without assistance. Register with the VEC.
Low sensory voting
Tuesday 17 November, 10 am to 4 pm. A quieter, lower-stimulation session for voters who need one. Check locations with the VEC.
You get two ballot papers
One for your local district in the Legislative Assembly, and one for your region in the Legislative Council.
MVM's how-to-vote card shows you how to number both. Bring it with you, or take a photo of it on your phone — you are allowed to use it inside the voting booth.
WHY THIS MATTERS
On 28 November, Victorians elect all 88 seats in the Legislative Assembly and all 40 seats in the Legislative Council.
In key Victorian districts, Muslim voters are numerous enough to decide the result.
State Parliament decides how our hospitals and schools are run, how police operate, what gets built in our suburbs, and what protection we have from vilification. These are the decisions that touch our families every week.
This means we have the power to:
- Elect representatives who align with our values.
- Hold those who ignore us accountable at the ballot box.
A how-to-vote card for every seat in Victoria
MVM is issuing a how-to-vote card for every Legislative Assembly district in Victoria — not just a handful of target seats. Wherever you live, there will be a card for you.
Researched
We research each candidate's record and stated positions.
Independent
We take no money or direction from any party.
Transparent
We publish the reasoning behind our recommendations.
CAN YOU HELP US GET THE WORD OUT?
The Victorian State Election is coming, and MVM is taking our election campaign directly into the community.We need volunteers who can help distribute MVM election flyers across Victoria.
- Mosques
- Community centres
- Community events
- Early voting centres
- Polling booths on election day
- Whether you can give us an hour or a whole day, your help makes a difference.
- No previous experience needed. We'll provide the flyers, information and support you need.
- This is a practical way to help make sure Muslim voters know where to find MVM's election information and voting resources.
Even an hour can help us reach hundreds more people.
Register as an MVM Volunteer Tell us where and when you're available.This tool helped me vote with purpose. Our votes should never be taken for granted again.
Thank you MVM for the guidance, it’s never been clear which candidate or party I can trust on election day.
For the first time, I felt like my vote actually mattered.
