Armchair Critic in saying none of the above, those voters rarely see their votes do any thing
Still our two party system says in the end most votes count for one or the other
45/55 is not a made up number

Belly That 45/55 only takes 2 parties into account there are also Greens, independents, One Nation etc.

If that was from a poll it shows how seriously flawed it was.

Quote "those voters rarely see their votes do any thing" with a hung parliament those people have more power than you could imagine.

Also the none 2 party candidates are increasing in number.

Philip S sorry old mate thought it was clear two party prefered is the end result
After votes are distributed, we know or should, primary vote of the big two are falling
In fact have never been lower
Do we understand however just how many minors win seats
The upper house, no matter who governs, will be very different this time, micro party,s will disappear from that house
Maybe the falling primary will one day lead to a different third force, but right now, only because of our senate the greens own that spot
Labor knows and is on a mission, it MUST prove its financial abilities,and find a way to both stop the boats and not bring the refugees here,while looking for ways to close offshore detention other than for those already here we are deporting

I am going to write something some may not like, but look at all the threads started after the 6th of December. You will notice they are going as a forum should be conducted.

There is one factor that differentiates them now to the conduct on threads prior to 6th of December.

Simply put no nicknamenick.

At times he had some very insightful information but it was the other comments that turned good threads into chaos.

Totally endorse demise of the troll "Nickname Nick"

Not demise just noticed he had not posted for a while, maybe holidays.
