(2) A request for a list, in electronic form, of the postal vote applicants may be made to the Electoral Commissioner by: (a) a Senator for a State or Territory if the postal vote applications are in respect of any Division in that State or Territory; or (b) a member of the House of Representatives if the postal vote applications are in respect of the Division for which he or she is a member of the House of Representatives; or (c) a registered political party if the postal vote applications are in respect of a Division in a State or Territory on the basis of which a branch or division of the party is organised. The request may be made on or after the third day after polling day and before the referendum can no longer be questioned.
