Episode description
Ben is joined today by Kevin Bonham to talk about the Victorian upper house voting system. We discuss the group voting tickets released on Sunday, the dynamics of how the electoral system plays out, why you should vote below the line and the difference that voting below the line makes, and how the system could be reformed.
- Who would've won in past elections without group voting tickets.
- How below-the-line voting changed the results in 2018.
- What the group voting tickets look like in 2022.
- Kevin's assessments of each party's position on GVT reform
- Kevin's analysis of the 2018 election result
