  • Revisiting the Constitutionality of Optional Preferential Voting
    A PROPORTIONATE BURDEN: REVISITING THE CONSTITUTIONALITY OF OPTIONAL PREFERENTIAL VOTING ERIC CHAN* In Day v Australian Electoral Officer (SA), the High Court unanimously upheld the constitutional validity of the Senate voting reforms legislated by the Commonwealth Parliament in the lead-up to the 2016 federal election, which allowed for optional preferential voting. The clarity of the Court’s judgment obscures the fact that the plaintiff in Day failed to prosecute the best case possible against the reforms, making full use of the judgments in Roach v Electoral Commissioner and Rowe v Electoral Commissioner. That argument is that the likely incidence and effect of vote exhaustion under optional preferential voting constituted an effective burden upon the franchise. This article elucidates and then assesses that argument. Ultimately, it is concluded in light of the actual outcomes of the 2016 federal election and the Court’s recent decision in Murphy v Electoral Commissioner that the argument would not have succeeded, optional preferential voting being proportionate to the empowerment of voters and the simplicity and transparency of the Senate electoral system.

    Suggestion 7 Martin Gordon 12 pages Victorian secretariat Phone (03) 9285 7197 Fax (02) 6293 7664 Email [email protected] From: Martin Gordon To: FedRedistribution - VIC Subject: Victorian redistribution Date: Monday, 23 October 2017 11:38:47 PM Attachments: Victorian 2017 redistribution.docx Attached is a submission for the redistribution for Victoria. Could you confirm receipt? Regards Martin Gordon Redistribution Committee for Victoria The Committee, I wish to make a submission for the redistribution of Victoria into 38 Divisions. I propose that the new Division (which I anticipate will be located in the north west of Melbourne be named after the late Prime Minister the Rt Hon John Malcolm Fraser, who represented the Victorian Division of Wannon. I discuss naming issues immediately below and also the details of the redistribution later on. I have sought to make use of local government boundaries to a significant degree (such as with Hotham, Isaacs, Wannon, Corgangamite, McEwen, Scullin, Batman, Jaga Jaga, Holt, Ballarat, and so on). At the time of making this submission I was regrettably out of the country and unable to more accurately calculate elector numbers, hence my redistribution is more narrative in approach. Naming The discussion below canvasses the history of the names of Divisions within Victoria, and some suggested naming changes for the Commissioners to consider. 1 Federation names - still existing Wannon, Corangamite, Corio, Ballarat, Bendigo, Gippsland, Flinders, Melbourne, Melbourne Ports, Indi, Kooyong. 1906 Fawkner (subsequently disestablished), Maribyrnong, Batman. 1913 Henty (subsequently disestablished). 1937 Deakin. 1948/49 Lalor, Gellibrand, Murray, Mallee, McMillan, Darebin, Burke (subsequently disestablished), Higgins, Chisholm, Higinbotham (subsequently disestablished), Isaacs, Wills, Hoddle (subsequently disestablished), La Trobe.
