It’s by-election season, with Kiama this weekend, and Secret Harbour on the 29th! We’ve got both on the map to help you find a rare by-sausage…if it exists. If you’re looking to switch between the two elections, just hit the ‘2’ button in the top right.
Nine schools & community centres will get a bonus chance to fundraise this year at WA’s Secret Harbour by-election on 29 Aug. Do you know someone planning a sizzle? Let us know so we can promote it! #democracysausage
Cheers to all those who worked the BBQ tongs today, and to everyone who sent in a tip-off! We're wrapping up #SAvotes2026 here at Democracy Sausage HQ with info about 47% of booths - including a huge 241 booths with a sausage sizzle or cake stall. #democracysausage #SAvotes2026
Hands down the best election day tradition ever! As a Canadian I am extremely jealous. We need a Canadian equivalent at our election polls immediately. Encourage people to vote, support local charities and causes, and get some food hole you wait or for after you vote. Make Democracy Tasty!
Democracy Sausage @democracysausage.org · 5mo agoHappy election eve, South Australia! We know what's on offer at nearly 1/3 of polling places, but that still leaves many mysteries to solve. If you visit a booth with a grey '?' on the democracysausage.org map, click on it to send a tip-off. Does it have bbq, cake, or nothing at all?
Polls are open, South Australia! Remember: you can only vote once, but you can legally visit every sausage sizzle and cake stall in the State. Good luck to all the volunteers raising funds for their communities today. 💜 #democracysausage #SAvotes2026

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 Day, Tasmania! Polls are now open. Don’t forget to support your local community fundraisers (and remember, you can get a sausage even if you’ve already voted!) #TasVotes #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!
We salute the snag sizzlers, cake bakers and other fundraisers of Tasmania - who’ve had an occasion to setup every year since 2018, except 2020 😳 #auspol
The land of cake sales and democracy sausage has an election coming up on July 19! Unlike so many children’s book illustrators, we won’t forget you Tasmania! We are waiting for the list of polling places to be published before we activate the map on our page. Watch this space! 👀
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.
With polls coming to a close in the east, most #DemocracySausage stalls will have wrapped up for the day, so it’s time to do our Democracy Sausage count before the counting of votes begins!
Overheard at #DemocracySausage HQ: "So much mustard in my beard"
Democracy Sausage is entirely unpaid and unsponsored... but we do occasionally get fun things in the mail.
Just putting it out there... you don't have to be a citizen to go and get a #DemocracySausage (though the Haloumi bites look delicious too!)
Nigella Lawson@nigella.bsky.social · last yr.I’m in Australia, where #DemocracySausage is on the menu today, though my #RecipeOfTheDay is Halloumi Bites, suitable for election-night viewing here or long-weekend festivities at home! www.nigella.com/recipes/hall...
Here are your #DemocracySausage web dev and jack of all trades taking a break to vote (and eat) at the excellent Highgate Primary. Next stop, Sacred Heart!
A member of team #DemocracySausage has done an in-person inspection at their local polling place (A++, would eat again)
Hey Australia, guess what? We have reports of Election Day sausage sizzles on every continent. Yes, even Antarctica! #AusVotes #DemocracySausage
Beautiful Autumnal Melbourne day made even better with a #democracysausage followed with some democracy cake ( St Dominic’s Primary, Camberwell ). @democracysausage.org #auspol
Dog content is some of our very favourite #DemocracySausage content!
JB_AU@jbau.bsky.social · last yr.Sprocket appreciated your good work at Windsor Primary School!
A huge thank you to all the hardworking volunteers who have given up time to bake and bbq for today’s events, and sorry to those who have had to cancel due to the weather. #AusVotes #DemocracySausage
