I am registered to vote in the ACT but currently in NSW. We were going to be in Canberra next weekend so I haven't changed my details - unfortunately we've had something come up and we can't get there (we're currently 10 hours from there). We've inbetween houses so don't have a new address I could have used anyway.

Am I stuffed on the voting thing now? Tried to get on the website but it wont load for some reason.

Just rock up at a voting place and let them
Know. You should be fine. I've been in holidays and still been able ti vote.

Just go to the nearest place of voting and let them know. They just get you to fill out your details so that they can mark u as voted. Then u vote there :-)

I don't see why not!?! I have voted in a different state to the one I lived in before.

Yeah I've done it in the past but I asked at the Post office today and they told me I couldn't do it (probably not the best place to ask but was there at the time and thought they might know).

All good, will go to the kids' school :D Thanks :)
