It was a very good article. Thank you for posting it. I wasn't expecting the picture with men in their swimsuits, but it further emphasizes the festive nature of your election day. It really makes it convenient to vote anywhere.

Clearly the Sydney Herald is left wing, but most main stream news is. They all say Donald Trump is bad and so is Elon Musk because he allows free speech on X that is counter to what they think. They keep calling Jan. 6 an insurrection but if that's true why weren't any of the people they jailed charged with that? I could go on about that the more I learn about how truly evil the left wing is. They have become authoritarian in the US and throughout the West in general.

You shouldn't change any of the voting systems you have in place now. The minute you get voting machines you open the country to fraud of all kinds. The US is an example of that but also the people that count and supervise the voting are very important. In the US, our entire election infrastructure has been infiltrated by bad actors bought by the Democrat party. Your country doesn't allow outside groups to be involved with the vote in any way and you should keep it that way.

Is the AEC as trusted as the article says? They have the systems in place but do you trust the people running it? Maybe they aren't perfect, but are they somewhat honest? After seeing what happened in the US over the years with just about everything I trust nothing anymore.
