What this does

Privacy-Preserving Electorate Lookup (P-PEL) helps people find their Australian federal and/or state electorate. If you see your electorate listed and want to select it, then go ahead.

What this doesn’t do

Anything other than finding the right electorate for the right address. We are working to reduce barriers to participation in democracy. This is the first step towards engagement with representatives.

What do we mean by “privacy-preserving”?

We intentionally built this to ask for the least identifying data necessary to give you the correct result. In addition, P-PEL runs on your device and does not send any of your address or electorate information to Democracy Developers. You can read the source code or a description of the lookup structure.
