Real People - facing the forgotten issues with friendship and a little fun.
Voting
I remember just before I turned 18 it was such a privilege to vote, and you were really wanting to do right by your country, I’m sorry as I see it, its so different now, but am worried now as where I live, I was ask to attend an Italian club for a celebration yesterday, brought up politics talking about Julia, not one Italian on that table did not know too much about her and could not carry on the conversation about Julia; we were a table of 8. And those 8 women would be voting at next election, and would probably be voting with the first bit of paper handed to them labor written all over it, along with all the new immigrants that have shifted in have been naturalized and given a heap of money of labor to start them off. And so naturally they would vote labor, that’s why I am in a labor seat, I have Italians , Greeks , Chinese, English, liberaness, you name it all around me. Pauline Hanson was right, the voting system needs to be reviewed badly, we have voters out here, that really don’t know whom their voting for and just go on that first bit of paper or what they have been swayed with when first coming on to Australian shores, or who are voting for because Julia might have be seen in doing something nice on the tellie. That’s why this is a labor seat in Reservoir. I’m actual so frustrated, and really if I didn’t vote, no one would even notice one lib vote, and the other thing the computer is getting all the voting wrong anyway. There are big muck ups in the voting system.
Have also been getting emails from friends about this government and their concerns.
Local member's news as well.
And with utube been able to show some different clips on government what there've been up too.

Am curious what your views are on this subject.

Permalink Reply by Barbara lee 13 hours ago yes James you would get a more honest vote, and you would get a person who would know whom their voting for, and putting a tick in all boxes would make you aware of whom is who. So I do agree with you.
but it does have to change we getting computer votes that are doubling up, and some just don't care who they really vote for willy nilly. It has to be made more honest, too many cheating the systems now also.
James is a great name has a ring of certification about it. Thanks for your reply.
cheerio and have a great week end.
