We see the political parties’ frantic election campaigns, but behind the scenes the Australian Electoral Commisison is working just as hard.
An often overlooked part of Australia’s democracy, the AEC is vital in ensuring our elections are both efficient and fair, a task full of challenges.

He is now a member of the advisory board of the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance and provides his expertise on elections globally.
