Numbering every box: I\'ve always supported numbering every box for the Senate. Politicians can\'t be trusted to decide where my preferences go. But apparently 95% of voters are lazy and stay above the line.
I found it very enlightening to look at the
group voting tickets
for some of the lesser-known parties. Seeing the
Group A Independents
directing preferences to One Nation in preference to Labor and Liberal is a bit of a turn-off. And it\'s interesting to see that
Family First
,
Non-Custodial Parents Party
, and
New Country Party
all have the Greens last.
I wonder how many of that 95% actually know where their vote is going. Probably very few. It\'s a bit sad really.
