This practice voting tool has been developed to explain the easiest way to make sure your vote will count in federal elections. It is interactive with easy to follow instructions on how to complete both of your ballot papers correctly for the House of Representatives and the Senate.

The tool is an educational device which does not seek to fully detail the complexity of informal and formal votes. For a comprehensive explanation of how votes are determined as formal or informal, see Formal and informal ballot papers.
