    Parliament of Australia Department of Parliamentary Services Parliamentary Library Information, analysis and advice for the Parliament RESEARCH PAPER www.aph.gov.au/library 21 August 2007, no. 5, 2007–08, ISSN 1834-9854 Australian electoral systems Scott Bennett and Rob Lundie Politics and Public Administration Section Executive summary The Australian electorate has experienced three types of voting system—First Past the Post, Preferential Voting and Proportional Representation (Single Transferable Vote). First Past the Post was used for the first Australian parliamentary elections held in 1843 for the New South Wales Legislative Council and for most colonial elections during the second half of the nineteenth century. Since then there have been alterations to the various electoral systems in use around the country. These alterations have been motivated by three factors: a desire to find the ‘perfect’ system, to gain political advantage, or by the need to deal with faulty electoral system arrangements. Today, two variants of Preferential Voting and two variants of Proportional Representation are used for all Australian parliamentary elections. This paper has two primary concerns: firstly, explaining in detail the way each operates, the nature of the ballot paper and how the votes are counted; and secondly, the political consequences of the use of each system. Appendix 1 gives examples of other Australian models used over the years and Appendix 2 lists those currently in use in Commonwealth elections as well as in the states and territories. y Under ‘Full’ Preferential Voting each candidate must be given a preference by the voter. This system favours the major parties; can sometimes award an election to the party that wins fewer votes than its major opponent; usually awards the party with the largest number of votes a disproportionate number of seats; and occasionally gives benefits to the parties that manufacture a ‘three-cornered contest’ in a particular seat.

    Inaugural Speech and I Support the Motion

    Lisa Singh MP House of Assembly Date: 30 May 2006 Electorate: Denison ADDRESS-IN-REPLY Ms SINGH (Denison - Inaugural) - I rise to formally second the motion. I would like to start by acknowledging the land on which we stand, that of the Mouheneenner people. I feel blessed that I live in a place that is home to one of the oldest living cultures on the planet. In the spirit of reconciliation I would like to acknowledge the Tasmanian Aboriginal community and apologise for the past injustices committed against them with the confidence and purpose of looking forward to a positive, reconciled future that includes respect and dignity for all. Mr Speaker, first and foremost I owe my success here today to the many thousands of Denison voters who put their faith in me and gave me their vote on 18 March. I thank all of them. I would also like to acknowledge in the Reserve my mother and father, my godmother, my stepmother and many other friends, family and supporters and also my brilliant campaign team who I can see up there in the Gallery. I also thank my two sons, Darcy and Jack, who patiently rode along with me on the campaign trail. Mr Speaker, may I congratulate you on your re-election as Speaker, and I also congratulate all members of this House on their re-election. I look forward to working with all of you and advancing the interests of our wonderful State. Being one of only two new members, I congratulate my parliamentary colleague and friend, Michelle O'Byrne, on her election to this House as well.
