So who's voting below the line ?
... I wanted to, but hell, that's a LOT of boxes. I doubt the true independents are going to get much love in this election, since voting below the line is the only way they get anything.

Of course, they've changed the way the Senate vote is done, probably to encourage more people to vote below the line. Picking 12 below the line isn't so onerous... although I know several people who will still be numbering every box.

You could vote for nothing but greens and still hit 12 below the line. Practically, even after you exclude the loonies, you are probably still looking at 35+ numbered to ensure your vote doesn't exhaust.

Re: So who's voting below the line ?
I had a look at the One Nation website yesterday to have look at where the are at policy wise these days. I always thought Pauline was a bit of a loon in the past, but I have to say that their once extreme policies have been softened somewhat, and I actually agree with quite a lot of their current policies.

Islam - Policy | Pauline Hanson's One Nation Carefully crafted, probably a few hard core policies there, but it certainly raises some interesting points. The mutilation of genitalia is probably spot on. |

Interesting. Just had a quick browse myself. The obvious choice was to go straight for the stance on Islam.

When Joe Hockey was the LNP member for my electorate, no-one was campaigning in my area. Not even Cockey himself. Now it's Trent Zimmerman, he is the only one campaigning. Maybe so many electorates won't be so nailed on if opposing candidates got out and campained.

Saying that, I've received exactly one mailing here as well - so the money is going elsewhere (those few swing electorates). |

North Melbourne (my, haven't we got some money) is about as safe a LNP seat as you'll find. Thus your vote doesn't really count. You could vote Greens till you are blue in the face - nothing will change. So nobody is really going to put any effort into it - they'd rather spend the money elsewhere.
