The Screen Guide

Some legal experts and politicians have suggested that the changes to the Electoral Act will make it more difficult for Indigenous Australians to cast their vote at this year's Federal Election. The new changes mean first time voters must provide 100 points of ID on or before the day the election date is called. On top of this they must provide original documents and have their enrolment forms witnessed by an authority. This poses real challenges in remote communities where the local mail plane service is limited. This program focuses on the cultural, bureaucratic and geographical diversity of the Lingari Electorate in the Northern Territory, which is one-sixth of Australia's land mass. From the Message Stick series.
