'Someone's going to find out': Law expert says people who voted more than once would have been caught

It's likely two people who claim they voted more than once - which is illegal - would have been caught out even if they hadn't bragged on social media.

The Electoral Commission has referred these two people to police.

Constitutional law expert Graeme Edgeler says alarms are raised if a voter's name is crossed off more than once.

"Someone's gonna find out, and they're going to start making inquiries - a few people do it every election, and they tend to get caught."
