Senate election. 05/04/2014. Lets get it right!
Submitted by pale ale on Sat, 2014-03-22 10:29
Lets have an educated discussion on what is in our best interest for the upcoming senate election.
I personally want the Greens to come dead last! They may have gained some popularity with the recent shark cull fiasco.
How many senate candidates are going to support our rights as rec fishos?
Last election, I think we had 2 (Shooters and Fishers Party and another fishing related one.) and it seems they were competing against each other and therefore neither of them got anywhere.
As a website with thousands of members, I beleive if we all work together we can make a difference.
Try and play nice! We need our rights as rec anglers to be heard!

6 Senate seats
There are 6 senate seats up for grabs and 3 will most likely go to the Libs then 2 to labor so the remaining seat will be a toss up between all the rest. I'm like you pale ale and want the greens last along with a lot of other micro parties so I'll probably start at the bottom and move my way up to the top with probably the SFP on top.

Looks like "Outdoor
Looks like "Outdoor Recreation" and "Australian Fishing and Lifestyle Party" are also on our side, with the "Shooters and Fishers".
We need to decide which one is actually best for the rec fishos and put all of our first preferences towards them. There seems little point in spreading the votes evenly amongst the three parties.
Should we contact these candidates and get them to explain their policies on this forum?
Is this OK Adam?

and i am on the fishing
and i am on the fishing side.
I am the outdoor recreational party seante candidate. i did a thread last year. We got a bit of exposure with joaquim de lima and him being eastern state based. I loved the photo of him and his hat. Its true we should all fuck the system and vote below the line. That way we know where our votes go not via the group voting tickets that can be found here
http://www.aec.gov.au/wa-senate/gvt.htm
Its very important to see if the peferences are were you want them to go.
current theory of seat allocations are this
2 lib, 2 lab, 1 green. The final seat is up for grabs. We need a fishing rep in the senate. either a SFP, AFL or a ORP. I assure you no alliances will be made if i get in. each bill will be voted on by merit and what suits W.A.s need

I see your point, Matty, but
I see your point, Matty, but we've seen what the greens are capable of if allowed any kind of balance of power. We have an opportunity to increase the votes in the corners that are supportive of us fisherfolk. The shark cull exposure this summer will only bolster votes to the greens.
Do it now, or well all be whining about more closures and sanctuary zones in the future.

If everyone on fishwrecked
If everyone on fishwrecked voted for the same "Fishing friendly" candidate, they would likely get a spot. In the past, seats were won by a handfull of votes and preferences from dickhead parties!
We just need to stick together and decide which one is best for fishos.

vote below the line
I'm with fish13, instead of everyone whining about where their party preferences go to, just vote below the line. I did it at the original election and will be doing it again this time around. Yes it is alot of numbers to put on the ballot but meh you're in there voting anyway so why not spend an extra couple of minutes making your vote the way you want it! Although I got smart this time around and applied for postal vote so I can spend some more time researching each party as I vote :)
Also the SFP will be getting my support again along with the other minor parties directly behind them that support fishing and 4wding!

Yep below the line makes
Yep below the line makes sense to me it'll be quite satisfying putting the greens and any affiliates last.
Love the West!
