Dear Electoral Commission,
Can I please get a copy of all correspondence, internal and external that discusses returning the 2023 election results in faster than the maximum allowed time under law.
My understanding is that the latest that the results can be released is 2pm today, but there is nothing stopping you releasing the results earlier.
Yours faithfully,
