Did you guys hear about a minor party called the Christian Leadership party or something like that!? They wanted lesbians to be burnt at the steake!.....im serious and since the greens put Labour as First preference Howard was angry he said something like ...you mught as well vote for the Christian Leadership party than the greens.....
Just to let u know if greens put Labour in 1st preference then any vote that goes to the greens also contributes to labours vote....i think thats how it works...someone told me that!! correct me if im wrong!!

No, the way it works is that you can vote in two ways. Either you can number all of the candidates running (for my division there were 65!) in order of preference, or you can adopt a party 'ticket', so that you adopt that party's order of preference. I personally wasn't going to research 65 different candidates running from 13 or so different parties, so I adopted my preferred party's ticket.
EDIT// Mark Latham called John Howard an 'arselicker' on radio. If he hadn't already received my vote, he'd have just won it.

Liberal got inI really didn't want Mark Lathom as our Prime Minister, so I to me its all good now we have John Howard again.
I spoke to a friend about this, and her view was that because of what Howards actions were against the war on terrorism (i.e. War in Iraq) that she thinks he is the devil and will vote against him. Is that naive or just passion?
Anyways, I am glad that Howard is Prime Minister again. If it ain't broken, don't fix it. Wasn't Lathem going to really screw up the HECS system for university as well? That would have been bad for me, as I'm finishing up high school in around a week and a half.

Oh well. It could be worse. At least he's not George Bush...
But this does make me slightly less inclined to move back to Australia in the near future.
