Thanks to all of our sausage tipsters, and a cheer for the Tasmanian volunteers braving today's weather to fundraise. As polls close we've got a sausage status for 36% of booths - a State record! #democracysausage

Happy election eve, Tasmania!
We've got info on what's on offer at 21% of polling places, but a lot of mysteries to solve.
If you're at a booth that still has a grey question mark on our map, click on it to send a tip-off. Let us know what you spot: bbq, cake stall, or even nothing at all!

And so the 2025 Federal Election democracy sausage coverage comes to a close! Various records smashed, many sausages eaten but none of it possible without contributions from a range of people. Pictured is our tired but happy democracy sausage team.

Australia-wide, there were 2,659 sites with #DemocracySausage and 1,536 with #DemocracyCake available. As expected, the more populous states had a higher count of sausage and cake.

A shout-out to the folks on the bbq at Cable Beach Primary School in Broome - they currently hold the ‘sausage sizzle furthest away from any other sizzle’ title! If you’re in the area, drop in for a democracy sausage or a bacon & egg roll. #democracysausage #wavotes
