The Victorian election is upon us, so adult residents of the state need to plan where they're going to cast their vote.

We've got all the information you need to find a voting centre on election day today, after early voting finished up at 6pm on Friday.

Where can I vote on election day?

Voting centres on election day opened across Victoria at 8am and will close at 6pm on Saturday, November 26, in a range of venues including schools, religious buildings and town halls.

You can find a polling place in your electoral district by entering your address on the VEC website.

You can also vote outside your district, although the VEC warns it will take longer.

Some of the voting centres include:

• Drill Hall, Melbourne
• Collingwood Town Hall
• Geelong High School
• Ballarat and Queens Grammar
• Echuca Primary School
• Bendigo Town Hall
• Visy Community Centre, Shepparton

There are hundreds of places to vote on election day across the state, so this is by no means an exhaustive list.

As always, check the VEC website for more details.

Where can I get a democracy sausage?

The one election-day task the Victorian Electoral Commission website doesn't have you covered for is where to find a coveted sausage sizzle.

Thankfully, the good folks at DemocracySausage.org have stepped up to the plate with an interactive map of all the voting centres with a sausage sizzle, cake stall, coffee cart and more.

They also have information about whether the food available includes vegetarian, vegan or halal options.

Just keep in mind the site is entirely crowd-sourced – it's not an official resource, so take the information with a grain of salt.

Or should that be a splash of sauce?
