Malcolm Turnbull and Bill Shorten want parliament to consider allowing electronic voting for Australian federal elections.
Ballot papers and pencils could be stored away permanently with Malcolm Turnbull and Bill Shorten both suggesting a change to electronic voting.
The prime minister has long advocated electronic voting and the opposition leader will write to him this week to offer bipartisan support.
"We're a grown up democracy, it shouldn't be taking eight days to find out who's won and who's lost," Mr Shorten said while conceding the election on Sunday, a week after polls closed.
