NO trace of this anywhere I can find.

Better citation needed.

(Assuming it's "Electoral" and not "Electrical" that is)..

The best I can do is "THE Liberals today attacked an ALP advertisement on uranium mining,
complaining to the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) that it was "false and misleading''.

Liberal state director Ben Morton has written to AEC commissioner Warwick Gately requesting the
ad be taken off air." which is from
<http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/story/0,21598,24279421-2761,00.html>

You are clearly very confused about process.  Complaining *to* the AEC is not the same as the
AEC accepting the complaint (which may or may not happen in due course of course), and the
complaint being significant enough to cause the cancellation of the election!
