Changes to Hume electorate a result of it being ‘slightly overenrolled’ for voters

AEC Senior Media Officer Alex Morris says the changes to the Hume electorate are a result of it being “slightly overenrolled” for voters.

“Hume is at the moment a geographically quite large electorate, it actually was slightly overenrolled for voters, so the committee made the call to move some of those voters into both Eden-Monaro and to the Riverina,” he told Sky News Australia.
