ICYMI- Horses Changing Courses- yesterday's cartoon for @australia.theguardian.com
Scene is two people and four horsemen of the apocalypse in coloured robes instead of the dark ones. Instead of the normal "death, famine, pestilence" etc, they have banners saying "Hope", "Justice", "Empathy" and "Just basically not being a dick" Horseman 1 is saying to the two people "THe whole apocalypse thing got too depressing so we've reinvented ourselves as the Four Horsemen of Working Together to Get Us All Out of the Mess We're in"

Ending the weekend having a drink at the pub like a Nigel, frankly I was in the mood for a quiet, solitary weekend. 😉

a reminder for australians this election weekend - YOU CAN'T WASTE YOUR VOTE

by patrick alexander - www.chickennation.com/voting/
page 1 of "you can't waste your vote" by patrick alexander. a comic explaining how australian preferential voting works. text as follows: this is australia, not america. you can’t “waste” your vote! how voting works in a federal election for the house of representatives (‘lower house’) hello australia. it’s me, your good friend dennis the election koala. it’s that time again, so let’s meet the candidates hoping to represent your electorate in the house of representatives of the federal parliament… major parties bamboot spitvalve complete scumbag party policies: kick puppies beat the poor pineapple on pizza floundra macwhatnot discreet scumbag party policies: put puppies to work chastise the poor pizza under pineapple minor parties & independents gort butterson independent policies: televised puppy torture mandatory constipation toot toot, i’m a boat aggy-waggy flufftums nice party policies: hugs a cup of tea smash the state page 2 of "you can't waste your vote" by patrick alexander. a comic explaining how australian preferential voting works. text as follows: struth, dennis, and crikey besides! i want to vote for the nice party, but i know they won’t win, so i guess i’d better vote for the discreet scumbags… …otherwise i’m just throwing my vote away!! wrong, ken the voting dingo!!! slappo! ?! vote! [3] spitvalve, bamboot complete scumbag [2] macwhatnot, floundra discreet scumbag [4] butterson, gort independent [1] flufftums, aggy-waggy nice in australia, we have preferential voting. you can vote for the discreet scumbags to beat the complete scumbags, and still “vote 1” for a minor party or independent! huh? whuh?? i don’t understand! page 3 of "you can't waste your vote" by patrick alexander. a comic explaining how australian preferential voting works. text as follows: preferential voting explained to win a seat, a candidate must end up with an absolute majority — that is, over 50% of the total votes. imagine your electorate has 100 voters: 51 votes are needed to win. first the “1” votes are counted. but look — no-one has 51 votes or more! the loser, gort, is eliminated. but the six people who voted “1” for gort now have their “2” votes (second preferences) counted and transferred to those candidates. still no-one has an absolute majority of 51 or more! so aggy-waggy is eliminated, and her votes transferred according to the next preferences. oh! a surprise victory for floundra! this example based on an infographic on this parliamentary education office webpage — a great reference! www.peo.gov.au/learning/fact-sheets/federal-elections.html (dec. 2018) page 4 of "you can't waste your vote" by patrick alexander. a comic explaining how australian preferential voting works. text as follows: so basically, if my first choice doesn’t win, my second choice gets counted as my first choice, and so on. correct! but since my second choice won anyway, what was the point of putting a minor party first? ah! firstly… minor parties and independents can and do win seats if enough people vote for them. since you lose nothing by voting “1” for whomever you like most, why wouldn’t you? oh! mm. secondly… this might happen: preferences from nice party voters made a big difference! i’ll need to keep them happy if i want to beat bamboot again next time. i’ll look into this… “hugs”. thirdly… if a candidate gets at least 4% of first preferences (“1” votes), they’ll receive election funding for each of those votes*, which will help their next campaign! i bought a sign! * approx. $2.76 at the 2019 election. the amount is indexed every 6 months in line with cpi. source: aec (nov. 2018) any more questions, ken the voting dingo? do i have to number all the boxes? yes. do i have to follow a “how to vote” card? no. // text box // share this comic freely! high quality versions for sharing and duplication: chickennation.com/voting found this comic useful? want more like it? support the creator: ko-fi.com/patrickalexander get official information and practice voting: aec.gov.au/voting/how_to_vote/ your vote matters. vote thoughtfully! © 2013-2019 patrick alexander chickennation.com v2.0 colour

Photo showing an Australian election flyer I received, the heading is 'LIFE WILL BE HARDER UNDER LADOR & THE GREENS' with newspaper quotes underneath saying the Greens will 'Abolish the private health insurance rebate', 'Greens to legalise hard drugs' and Greens leader Adam Bandt has Anthony Albanese exactly where he wants him' The heading underneath says 'DON'T RISK IT'

Friendly reminder folks, please ignore this fraudulent data mining exercise from the LNP and apply for a postal vote directly from the AEC. Chuck this shit in the bin where it belongs! #auspol #ausvotes
Junk mail from the LNP containing a postal vote application which is actually an exercise to mine your personal data. Apply at the AEC instead.

When the ALP was elected, many in the tech policy and digital rights space (including myself) were hopeful it would mean a more amenable government to good, meaningful (ideally progressive) tech policy. This, in my opinion, did not happen. Here’s me attempting to summarise ~3 years of frustration-

It’s been a period of huge technological upheaval, which is what makes Australia’s track record on tech so disappointing
