WrongBridges said:Much the same as me, the preferences always amuse me though as the libs will always put Labor last no matter what, where as the labor party will put "australians against further immigration, christian democrats, family first and other backward looking, reactionary geese" at the bottom with the libs above them. I don't see why both sides don't do that.
I actually mark my senate choices myself. No tick for me.manticle said:I spend my time on the ballot paper making sure australians against further immigration, christian democrats, family first and other backward looking, reactionary geese are listed at the bottom. Always difficult trying to work out the least preferred.
If you direct your own preferences it doesn't matter. For me it's not who I'm voting in as neither major party appeals. It's more about who I can keep out.Bridges said:Much the same as me, the preferences always amuse me though as the libs will always put Labor last no matter what, where as the labor party will put "australians against further immigration, christian democrats, family first and other backward looking, reactionary geese" at the bottom with the libs above them.

Then we end up with the likes of Oakeshott, Katter, Windsor, Wilkie, Hanson, etc that would suggest to me there should be less people voting that way.manticle said:If you direct your own preferences it doesn't matter.

More people should vote this way (as Rowy suggests he does)

EDIT: @ Liam_snorkel
Well you may have noticed several significant events over the last 6 or so years. Firstly, we had a populist Labor leader, Milky, who took his party to an election against the Coalition and won by a considerable margin. He was held in high regard by the voting public, but those who really knew him, despised him so much that they held a caucus ballot and sent the fake, slime ass, milky, mofo packing.Clutch said:I've actually enrolled for this one.
How do I vote?
By directing your preferences instead of allowing them to be directed due to shitty deals that have nothing to do with actual policy? You're having a lend. I put fuckwits like katter and hanson at the bottom of the pack. I didn't say anything about voting for independents - just inform yourself and number every box.Black Devil Dog said:Then we end up with the likes of Oakeshott, Katter, Windsor, Wilkie, Hanson, etc that would suggest to me there should be less people voting that way.
The only Independent that I have any respect for is Nick Xenophon, at least he stands for issues that need to be addressed.
