Democracy Sausage

Democracy Sausage is an Australian term referring to a popular tradition during elections, where community groups and schools set up sausage sizzles—essentially barbecues selling sausages and drinks—outside polling stations. This practice combines the act of voting with a social experience, encouraging community engagement and participation in the democratic process. It reflects a light-hearted approach to elections, making the voting experience more enjoyable and fostering a sense of community among voters. Overall, it highlights the importance of both civic duty and community spirit in the democratic process.
