Craig Paulina S. Cossette Michael D. Martinez University of Florida Washington College University of Florida [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Abstract American politics today is driven largely by deep divisions between Democrats and Republicans. That said, there are many people who view the opposition in an overwhelmingly negative light – but who simultaneously possess a mix of positive and negative feelings toward their own party. This paper is a response to prior research (most notably, Lavine, Johnson, and Steenbergen 2012) indicating that such ambivalence increases the probability that voters will engage in "deliberative" (or "effortful") rather than "heuristic" thinking when responding to the choices presented to them in political campaigns. Looking first at the 2014 gubernatorial election in Florida, we find no evidence that partisan ambivalence reduces the importance of party identification or increases the impact of other, more "rational" considerations (issue preferences, perceived candidate traits, economic evaluations) on voter choice.

  • The Political Science Program in the Australian National University's
    Democratic Audit of Australia – December 2005 The Mathematics of Democracy: Is the Senate really proportionally representative?1 Scott Brenton Australian National University Former Prime Minister Paul Keating memorably described the Senate, when the Democrats and Greens shared the ‘balance of power’, as ‘unrepresentative swill’. After the Liberal-National Coalition government won a Senate majority at the 2004 federal election that description has assumed an unintended – and at least partially accurate – meaning. Whilst most discussion has focused on the implications of the executive gaining control of the legislature for the first time in almost two-and-a-half decades, of greater concern is that the majority of voters did not vote for the Coalition in the Senate. The Coalition parties2 only received 45.09 per cent of the first preference vote in the Senate but won 21 of the 40 seats up for election, or 52.5 per cent of the seats. In Queensland – the state that delivered the Coalition its majority at the last election – the Liberal Party won half the seats with only 38.29 per cent of first preferences, whilst the National Party won only 6.61 per cent of first preferences. National Party Senator Barnaby Joyce, the self-proclaimed balance-of-power holder, won his seat with less than half a quota on first preferences, and after a 2.55 per cent swing against the Nationals from the previous election. How proportionally representative is the Senate’s electoral system? As many eminent psephologists note – including Antony Green3, Campbell Sharman4 and Malcolm Mackerras5 – the Senate’s electoral system of Proportional Representation 1 Thanks to Marian Sawer, Antony Green and John Uhr for suggesting some useful references and to Peter Brent and an anonymous reviewer for editorial advice.

  • The States and Territories Ferran Martinez I Coma and Rodney Smith
    9 The States and Territories Ferran Martinez i Coma and Rodney Smith In November 2015, Bill Shorten declared that, if elected, his government would provide $100 million towards the construction of a new Townsville football stadium. The Queensland Labor government would match the funding. The stadium would primarily serve as the home ground for the newly crowned NRL Premiership winners, the North Queensland Cowboys (Australian Labor Party (ALP) 2015). In the months leading up to the 2016 federal election, Shorten continued to promote his stadium proposal, challenging the Coalition to equal his commitment (Peel 2016). Business analysts criticised Labor’s plan, while the Coalition remained uncommitted (Ludlow 2016). During the fourth week of the election campaign, after the Queensland government announced it would increase its funding to $140 million, Malcolm Turnbull matched Shorten’s stadium promise as part of a broader ‘City Deal’ for Townsville. The State’s Assistant Minister for North Queensland welcomed this new bipartisanship, while criticising the time it took Turnbull to make his promise (Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) 2016; Liberal Party of Australia (LPA) 2016b). Townsville’s football stadium illustrates some of the ways in which federalism and party competition interact in Australian federal elections. The fact that Labor controlled the State government gave federal Labor the possibility of an initiative that created policy and electoral dilemmas for the federal Coalition. As events transpired, the Queensland government was able to leverage State infrastructure funding from both federal major 211 DOUBLE DISILLUSION parties. Had the Queensland government been in Liberal–National Party (LNP) hands, as was the case until early 2015, the dynamics of the stadium decision would have been quite different.

  • Chapter Five: Increasing the Size of Parliament
    Chapter 5: Increasing the Size of Parliament This is an appropriate place to show the five sections of the Constitution that are the basis of my case. They begin with section 7 which this book mentions more often than any other, especially the words “directly chosen by the people of the State”. Notice the similarity of the Senate words to those in section 24 requiring that the House of Representatives “shall be composed of members directly chosen by the people of the Commonwealth”. The origin of those words is easy to explain. Our Founding Fathers wanted to copy the US Constitution and the American Founding Fathers provided in their ARTICLE ONE, section 2: “The House of Representatives shall be composed of Members chosen every second Year by the people of the several States. .” It was the intention of the American Founding Fathers that their House of Representatives be the ONLY genuinely democratic part of their Constitution. The reason why our Founding Fathers added the word “directly” to the American “chosen” was to ensure that BOTH senators and lower house members be elected in a candidate-based electoral system. That has continued from federation right through to the present day for members of the House of Representatives. That it has not been so for senators is what this book is mainly about. 1 There is a Part VI of the Constitution with four sections. The one below is the second of the four. The idea that the size of the Parliament should be increased is unpopular among voters but is now quite popular among commentators.

Conclusion 247 Bibliography 251 Appendices 260 i Abstract While all houses of Australian parliaments using proportional representation use the Single Transferable Vote arrangement, district magnitudes (the numbers of members elected per division) and requirements for casting a formal vote vary considerably. Early chapters of this thesis analyse election results in search for distinct patterns of proportionality, the numbers of effective parties and partisan advantage under different conditions. This thesis argues that while district magnitude remains the decisive factor in determining proportionality (the higher the magnitude, the more proportional the system), ballot paper numbering requirements play a more important role in determining the number of (especially) parliamentary parties. The general pattern is that, somewhat paradoxically, the more freedom voters have to choose their own preference allocations, or lack of them, the smaller the number of parliamentary parties. Even numbered magnitudes in general, and six member divisions in particular, provide some advantage to the Liberal and National Parties, while the Greens are disadvantaged in five member divisions as compared to six or seven member divisions.

  • 1 CHAPTER ONE: DISHONESTY the ONLY POLICY Children Are
    CHAPTER ONE: DISHONESTY THE ONLY POLICY Children are often taught the precept that honesty is the best policy. it is sometimes slightly varied to say that honesty is the only policy. Unhappily, in recent times, federal politicians have varied it again. They behave as though they think dishonesty is the only policy. Both the present Senate voting system (operating in 2016 and 2019) and the immediate past system (1984 to 2014) have been dishonest in that both have pretended senators are directly chosen by the people when they are not. Australian senators are appointed by party machines even when technically “elected” in a thoroughly rigged system. Of the six Senate electoral systems operating since Federation these recent two are the worst. Under the first four voting methods senators were directly chosen by the people and the best of those (by far) was the single transferable vote system operating at elections from 1949 to 1983, inclusive. The changes made by the Chifley Labor government in 1948-49 were the only genuine democratic reforms. The Chifley system was “proper” STV. It complied with the direct-election requirement of the Constitution in that it was genuinely candidate-based, therefore genuinely democratic. The other four (in 1919, 1934, 1984 and 2016) were “reforms” designed to improve the electoral prospects of the party in power. Post 1948-49 proportional representation systems are described by me as “Democratic single transferable vote” (1949-83) and, pejoratively, as “Stasiocratic STV in first unconstitutional camel” (1984-2014) and “Manipulative STV in second unconstitutional camel”, the present system. For my justification of the word “unconstitutional” readers are invited to turn to my chapter Judges Exercise Their Power.

  • Pauline Hanson and Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party
    Taking the International Spotlight: Pauline Hanson and Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party Kay Saunders In 2001 I was invited to give a public lecture at the Centre for the Study of the History of the Twentieth Century, a scholarly research institute within the University of Paris. The invitation was extended by Professor Stephane Dufoix, who writes on the internment of enemy aliens in World War II, one of my academic specialisations. However, I was not asked to speak about this area of expertise. Indeed, it turned out to be a 'Don't mention the war' event. Rather, Professor Dufoix and his colleagues were fascinated by Pauline Hanson and were interested in an Australian perspective on the rise of extreme right-wing populism and the Down Under equivalent of the French les laissés-pour-compte ('those left behind') or les paumés ('the losers'). Many in the audience were concerned about, and had researched, the rise of the xenophobic politics of Jean-Marie Le Pen and his supporters. In 1995, Alain de Benoist, it seems, had somewhat prematurely declared the death of the Left/Right in French politics.1 These intellectually and culturally sophisticated Parisians found Hanson an engrossing — indeed, bewitching — subject. Though not entirely sure about her accent, they recognised her — through other class markers, such as her public presentation in gaudy, highly sexualised clothes, so full of masculine aggression and coquettish femininity — as une paumée. This might translate into American English as 'trailer trash'. Worryingly, they familiarly referred to her as 'Pauline', though Le Pen was never referred to as 'Jean-Marie' but always as 'Le Pen'.
