Australians can ONLY do this for 40 days after June 28, after that only the govt can refer people to the High Court.
This is a 40 day window of opportunity that may turn this election of it's ear.
It could also mean that Clive Palmer spent $70 million for nothing!!!

There are filing fees that have to be paid but many people qualify for an exemption.
Remember, you can't file until after writs have been returned on June 28. Follow the filing instructions after that date.

All candidates must complete an AEC Qualification Checklist where they make their declarations about s44.
If you think any of your candidate's forms are incomplete, ambiguous, incorrect or just dodgy af, then refer them.

Check out your Palmer UAP candidates especially, many have questions about their eligibility, their paperwork is very sloppy.
If UAP candidates are found to be ineligible & their preferences flowed to the winning candidate then the result is void

Good luck.
Plenty of time to do this Australia, so check out all the candidates that stood in your electorate, if any are dodgy it could change the result.
If you need any further info comment below, if I can't help I'm sure someone in our Twitter community will know.
