- On 3 May, Australians celebrate election day by enjoying the tradition of the democracy sausage at polling booths across the country.
- This custom arose from fundraising sausage sizzles that date back to the 1930s and gained wider recognition around the 2013 federal election.
- Polling places offer sausages with onions, bread, and condiments, while some booths add alternatives like bacon and egg rolls and companies rename products such as MasterFoods' tomato sauce to Democracy Sauce.
- Uber Eats collaborates with chef Iain Hewitson to deliver Democracy Sausages in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane for $3.50 each, with proceeds supporting the Australian Red Cross.
- The democracy sausage fosters community engagement and egalitarian spirit, making voting day more enjoyable and maintaining important democratic connections despite some polling locations lacking sausage sizzles.
