What are the differences between the minor parties? If you're considering voting for a minor party, which one? While there are many, I've chosen to compare Adam Bandt's voting record with Pauline Hanson's and Craig Kelly's to show you the difference between a left wing and right wing minor party voting record, and also show you how you can learn more information about members of parliament and what they've stood for! These are minor parties that run candidates in all/nearly all electorates - so haven't included ones that stand in just specific states.  You can do your own voting record comparison of your local member here:  https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/

What's the difference between Scott Morrison and Anthony Albanese? Who should you vote for out of Labor or Liberal in the 2022 federal election? I'll compare their voting records to demonstrate what the two major parties have voted for in the past so you can see what they stand for, not just what they say they'll do. While there are plenty of similarities between the major parties (they do want to appeal to as many people as possible after all) there are some differences. This one's really important for helping people figure out who they want to vote for - so if it helped you, share it around! Though do note: this is just about their previous voting record - and won't necessarily be an exact reflection of their election policies, but will help you frame them in context with their track record.

First time voters will determine who wins this election - but only if they enrol now: https://aec.gov.au/enrol/

You have until 18th of April - 8pm sharp.

This is your chance to change the future.

If you can't get to the polls on election day then good news! You can vote early in multiple ways, including postal voting. This is a handy guide to teach you how to apply for a postal vote, what you need to know about filling it in, and when it needs to be returned by. This is super helpful if you are travelling or need to isolate on election day. If you don't apply in time there's also telephone voting.  And remember: an election is coming soon!

Can the Prime Minister decide to extend their term past 3 years? Can they just choose not to call an election? What if they just refuse? Well, let me go over all the various constitutional and legal ways that it's not actually the Prime Minister's decision - even though we've grown accustomed to them being the one who picks the date of the election.

Why run as an independent? And how do independent candidates fund their campaigns? In this interview I ask Independent Candidate Georgia Steele all about campaigning - from the very basics of registering as a candidate to finances, the importance of volunteers, forward planning, and how someone gets their name known in the community without the support of a political party's recognition and funds.  To learn more about if an independent candidate is running in your area search up "independent candidate for (your electorate/state/territory)" near an election and see what information there is.
