Baird
On 13 November 2024, the Victorian Electoral Commission applied to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) for a review of the results in Baird Ward after a high number of multiple returns (referring to when more than one ballot pack is returned by a voter) were detected. On 5 June 2025, VCAT upheld the election result, finding there was attempted and actual interference, but it did not affect the result of the election.
