I'm a bit too much of a politics nerd, unfortunately. I'm one of those strange people who make Antony Green's life worth living. Laughing

Maybe i should have put this in the WTF thread.

Quote:
The Greens have given in to days of pressure from members and supporters outraged at the party's decision to preference anti-gay crusader Reverend Fred Nile's party candidate above a Liberal Party candidate who is a gay, Indigenous lawyer.
Local Greens in the seat of Sydney met on Thursday and resolved to re-order the party's how-to-vote card and drop Mr Nile's Christian Democratic Party candidate, Ula Falanga, to the last spot

I voted today. I'll be on the Goldy on election day so that's why.

They don't ask for any proof of why you can't vote on election day, I'll be voting early from now on. No crowds, too easy !

Labor last, greens 2nd last!

Go ALA! Love their slogan.... "Political correctness is wrong" Smile

I have done my postal vote but I didn't need to do it. AEC have leased the office downstairs for pre-voting. Security guards 24/7 and amazingly cannot speak English let alone read it as they parked in our car parking spots.

Really? I don't remember that at all! What's weird is that I was at that game, but have distinct memories of watching the election coverage on TV that night. I guess I must have just switched it on when I got home.

What a night that was. Sad

I remember it well as it was our last finals match we've participated in but I don't remember actively seeking out the election results as they were coming through as it almost seemed certain that the Coalition would win comfortably and Labor was never a chance in that election.

2010 on the other hand was a different story.
