Attacks on Australia’s preferential voting system are ludicrous. We can be proud of it | Kevin Bonham
It’s been argued the election would have had a different outcome with first-past-the-post voting. I cannot overstate how unsound this assumption is

Sure, let's investigate Liberals' links to a cult. But it's a bit late. Their last PM had ties to a dodgy church and pastor. The media maintained the fiction that Scotty's faith was a 'personal matter'. When it was quite clearly influencing public policy. #ausvotes www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...
