Independent Council Election Observer.

Elections -- Australia.

An Australian-first initiative, the ICEO aims to promote truth and accuracy in campaigning in the lead up to Queensland's 2020 local government elections so the voting public can be more confident they have not been misled by fake news and false information before casting their vote. Operating from December 2, 2019 until election day, March 28, 2020, the Observer will accept written requests from all councillor and mayoral candidates, recontesting and aspiring, and councils in every local government area, including the City of Brisbane, to fact check allegations and other material posted by candidates on social media or elsewhere which may be false and misleading. These may relate to: claims ranging from inappropriate behaviour to misconduct or corruption made by or against individual candidates by their opponents or other persons; or campaign claims and promises which may be false and misleading.
