The South Burnett region is divided by three federal electorates - Maranoa, Flynn and Wide Bay - however there are no early voting centres yet for the seats of Flynn or Wide Bay in the South Burnett.

There are 24 candidates running across the South Burnett’s three Federal Electorates, which are currently held by David Littleproud (Maranoa), Colin Boyce (Flynn), and Llew O'Brien (Wide Bay).

Voters can also request a postal ballot from the AEC website (www.aec.gov.au) or from AEC offices up until Wednesday May 18.

If you are interstate on election day and haven’t voted early via post or at an early polling booth, you can only vote at a designated interstate voting centre. The AEC will publish the locations of these centres closer to election day.

A full list of expected election day polling places for May 21 is below.
