ABC to use digital channel for election

This Saturday night, the Northern Territory election coverage will be heard across Australia on a dedicated ABC digital channel 'ABC NT Votes'.

ABC NT Votes will air the same broadcast that will go to air on 105.7 ABC Darwin. Julia Christensen and Richard Margetson will be in Darwin with Rohan Barwick leading the coverage from Alice Springs.

The ABC will also utilise social media to keep everyone in touch with election developments on Twitter (#NTVotes) and Facebook (/1057ABCDarwin).
