Unfortunately not, there are some real loonies in there. Family First, Fred Niles, Pauline Hanson - real straight-jacket merchants.

My plan is to list those of the minor parties that need medication, and makes sure they don't get any vote. I've already looked at the independents and none of them are any good, therefore I'll take the remaining party options, minus the loonies, and go from small to large, missing out any obvious jokers (eg cyclists) and ending on Labor to make sure it doesn't exhaust. Numbers about 1-35 IIRC, which is tractable.

Try DonkeyVotie - A non-serious guide to the 2016 Australian Senate ballot paper for ticking off the loonies and finding those few that have working braincells.

According to my union colleagues today, who supposedly have their finger on the pulse there is a late run back to the Labour side, especially with Brexit not having near the impact on the electorate as first feared....

So we may not have to endure the people hating right for much more than 30 hours from now.

No comments on the UFU v CFA saga, which may well swing plenty of Labour voters in Country Victoria to donkey voting.

Admittedly Labours big gains have to come from other states now. Doubt if Labour will lose a lot of ground in Victoria.... People come to their senses once that ballot paper is in front of them.

Me too. Especially now they've teamed up with HEMP. The good things in life, what's not to like?

They will ban sniffer dogs at festivals and raves.

Anything to stop the kids digesting 10 tabs as the sniffer dog approaches

Sportsbet disagree.

ALP now fallen further back to $8.

Definately worth a bet if you are feeling that confident.

It costs $20 not to vote. That's not a bad deal.
