    ...and cate that is the most frustrating thing about our election process for sure...I am not a huge fan of Kevin Rudd or anything...but the fact that he was voted in by the Australian people...but then the party has the ability to boot him out because he cant win the popularity contest within his own party...is just digusting to me

    actually to me the most frustrating thing about our voting process is preferential voting. if i wanted to vote for the labor(or whoever) party, id vote for the labor(or whoever) party. i choose not to, so i dont want my vote ending up with them. its bullshit.

    the real issue with preference voting is even if you follow your candidates preferences its got nothing to do with their policies/opinions on the other candidates but is all about deals that have been struck up.

    No offence taken, just hate when we're seen as a single policy party, or a joke, although seems to be happening less and less, are doing better than the greens were at this age.
    I don't mean to offend anyone, a lot of what I say should be taken with a grain of salt... that said for most of you I'm a stranger on a computer on the other side of the world, don't give me that sort of power!
