This kit has been compiled by the Stronger Voice for Western Sydney Partnership.

Welcome to the 2011 NSW Election Kit, compiled by Stronger Voice for Western Sydney. The site provides a set of signposts to key information about the upcoming NSW State Election.

We haven’t tried to rewrite or reinvent a total package of election information. Much of this work has already been put together by other organisations. So this site contains links to essential information about:

• Each State Electorate;

• Basic Civics [including What voting means; Responsibilities of each level of government; the NSW Parliament and policies of the major parties];

• Some tips on how to organise about election issues in your local area; and

• The Election Agendas of key groups in the community.

STOP PRESS: By now you will all be aware of the Liberal National Party Coalition win in the 2011 NSW State Elections. Our congratulations to the Coalition on their victory. Details of the actual seat-by-seat results in the Legislative Assembly and the Legislative Council results can be found in the Virtual Tally Room of the NSW Electoral Commission website at: http://vtr.elections.nsw.gov.au/Vtrhome.htm
