Explainer: Why EasyVote cards may no longer be mailed to you

Reese Morgan2026-07-15T03:18:44.000Z

oh ffs what now? My 80 year old nan already struggles to find the mailbox, now they want her to set up a digital account? get real

Chloe Martin2026-07-15T03:28:44.000Z

my point! Nan's not gonna set up an email account just to vote.

Noah Bennett2026-07-15T03:33:44.000Z

it's not that hard to set up an email. Stop babying them.

Chloe Martin2026-07-15T03:36:44.000Z

Digital equity concerns? Try basic common sense. Not everyone has a printer or a computer. Keep the bloody paper cards coming.

Blake Turner2026-07-15T04:33:44.000Z

get stuffed I'm not clicking some link and logging in just to vote. Paper or nothing.

Ella Thompson2026-07-15T04:06:44.000Z

I actually prefer digital but I get why older folks would be upset. Maybe have both options available? That's not hard.

Blake Turner2026-07-15T04:20:44.000Z

Yeah nah get stuffed. EasyVote card is the only reason I remember to vote. Now I'll just forget and not bother.

Ella Thompson2026-07-15T04:31:44.000Z

Green party pushing this digital nonsense so only gen z can vote I bet 🙄

Finn Walker2026-07-15T04:47:44.000Z

A text would cost them literally nothing. But nah, let's just blame old people for not adapting.

Noah Bennett2026-07-15T04:42:44.000Z

It's 2026 and we're still mailing things? Good. Save the trees and stop wasting taxpayer money on postage. Check your emails like an adult.

Taylor Wright2026-07-15T04:49:44.000Z

lol watch the government website go down on election day. classic.

Ella Thompson2026-07-15T04:52:44.000Z

yeah cos the greens and their Facebook ads are totally unbiased 🙄

Taylor Wright2026-07-15T04:50:44.000Z

They always say 'digital equity' but then the website crashes on election day. Seen it before lol

Reese Morgan2026-07-15T05:17:44.000Z

As someone who works in postal, I've seen how much junk mail we shred. But EasyVote cards? That's actually important. Don't mess with it.

Hayden Kelly2026-07-15T05:37:44.000Z

my brother literally moved house and forgot to update his address now he won't get the card. this is gonna be a mess

Finn Walker2026-07-15T06:05:44.000Z

Fair enough move with the times. But maybe send a text reminder instead of an email? That would actually help.
