The 2028 Queensland local elections are scheduled to be held on 25 March 2028 to elect the mayors and councils of the 77 local government areas in Queensland, Australia.
All 77 councils use optional preferential voting (OPV) for mayoral elections. Under OPV, voters are only required to vote for one candidates, although they can choose to preference other candidates.[2]
In the 22 councils that use single-member wards (including Brisbane, Gold Coast and Townsville) OPV is also used.[3]
See also: 2028 Ipswich City Council election. Only Ipswich uses multi-member wards, with four two-member wards (resulting in eight total councillors).[4]
No form of preferential voting is in place, with plurality block voting (also referred to as first-past-the-post by the Electoral Commission) is instead used, where voters are only required to mark the same amount of candidates as there are positions to be elected − in the case of Ipswich, two candidates.[5] [6]
54 councils are undivided, meaning they do not use any forms of wards and all councillors are elected in a single area representing the entire LGA.[7]
Plurality block voting is used for these councils.[5]
