Hooray for Terry Gygar.

Why should anyone be surprised that the AEC ignores electoral fraud? The Australian Electoral Commission is, after all, a Labor creation.

Australians forget that Gough Whitlam’s government replaced the Commonwealth Electoral Branch with the ‘Australian Electoral Office’. Then, Bob Hawke’s government quickly replaced the Australian Electoral Office with a conveniently unaccountable body called the ‘Australian Electoral Commission’.

Two Labor governments -- two occasions in Australian history when electoral administration was quietly reorganised. With each reorganization, Labor leaders made union-style election fraud and criminal misconduct easier to perpetrate, harder to detect and virtually impossible to prove when discovered. Graham Richardson even boasts of this on page 144 of his book, 'Whatever it Takes.'

The pathetically timid Liberal Party blew its chance to restore integrity to our elections. They failed to act despite eyewitness reports and reams of evidence to State and Federal inquiries.

In November 2007, Fran Bailey almost became the latest victim of fraud aimed at toppling non-Labor candidates. Despite more than 2200 absentee ballots from one booth alone in the neighbouring electorate of Scullin, Bailey held onto McEwen by just twelve votes. Other candidates weren’t so lucky.

Voting fraud is a crime. Organised voting fraud is organised crime. The AEC is not an asset to our democracy but a liability. It denies truth and looks away as the will of the people is trumped by the will of corrupt people.

When will Australians accept that the ALP created the AEC for ALP interests, not the national interest? How much cheating is necessary for Australians to accept that Australians lose when corrupt people embrace power through fraud?

With Cronulla in mind, election-related violence in Kenya is a prescient warning about Australia’s future after we have subdivided into competing communities with little at stake in each other’s success thanks to the poisoned chalice of ‘multiculturalism’.

While the AEC enables election fraud and Labor officials encourage fraud to win elections, they condemn our children to the risk of violence and chaos when people frustrated by electoral corruption finally lose faith in the process and turn on each other.
