If you’re feeling peckish before or after voting in the upcoming federal election at a polling booth on 3 May, we’ve got you covered.
See below the ACT Government’s list of the schools around the region where a barbecue – a democracy sausage – or other food and drink can be purchased.
Many schools are election day polling places. School Parents and Citizensโ Associations (P&Cs) across Canberra will operate barbecues, bake sales and more to raise funds to support their initiatives.
If you’ve already participated in the election with early voting, why not head down to one of the below places anyway to support their causes?
