  • Stubbornly Opposed: Influence of Personal Ideology in Politician's
    Stubbornly Opposed: Influence of personal ideology in politician's speeches on Same Sex Marriage Preliminary and incomplete 2020-09-17 Current Version: http://eamonmcginn.com/papers/Same_Sex_Marriage.pdf. By Eamon McGinn∗ There is an emerging consensus in the empirical literature that politicians' personal ideology play an important role in determin- ing their voting behavior (called `partial convergence'). This is in contrast to Downs' theory of political behavior which suggests con- vergence on the position of the median voter. In this paper I extend recent empirical findings on partial convergence by applying a text- as-data approach to analyse politicians' speech behavior. I analyse the debate in parliament following a recent politically charged mo- ment in Australia | a national vote on same sex marriage (SSM). I use a LASSO model to estimate the degree of support or opposi- tion to SSM in parliamentary speeches. I then measure how speech changed following the SSM vote. I find that Opposers of SSM be- came stronger in their opposition once the results of the SSM na- tional survey were released, regardless of how their electorate voted. The average Opposer increased their opposition by 0.15-0.2 on a scale of 0-1. No consistent and statistically significant change is seen in the behavior of Supporters of SSM. This result indicates that personal ideology played a more significant role in determining changes in speech than did the position of the electorate. JEL: C55, D72, D78, J12, H11 Keywords: same sex marriage, marriage equality, voting, political behavior, polarization, text-as-data ∗ McGinn: Univeristy of Technology Sydney, UTS Business School PO Box 123, Broadway, NSW 2007, Australia, [email protected]).

  • Marginal Seat Analysis – 2019 Federal Election
    Australian Landscape Architects Vote 2019 Marginal Seat Analysis – 2019 Federal Election Prepared by Daniel Bennett, Fellow, AILA The Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) classifies seats based on the percentage margin won on a ‘two candidate preferred’ basis, which creates a calculation for the swing to change hands. Further, the AEC classify seats based on the following terms: • Marginal (less than 6% swing or 56% of the vote) • Fairly safe (between 6-10% swing or 56-60% of the vote) • Safe (more than 10% swing required and more than 60% of the vote) As an ardent follower of all elections, I offer the following analysis to assist AILA in preparing pre- election materials and perhaps where to focus efforts. As the current Government is a Coalition of the Liberal and National Party, my focus is on the fairly reliable (yet not completely correct) assumption that they have the most to lose and will find it hard to retain the treasury benches. Polls consistently show the Coalition on track to lose from 8 up to 24 seats, which is in plain terms a landslide to the ALP. However polls are just that and have been wrong so many times. So lets focus on what we know. The Marginals. According to the latest analysis by the AEC and the ABC’s Antony Green, the Coalition has 22 marginal seats, there are now 8 cross bench seats, of which 3 are marginal and the ALP have 24 marginal seats. This is a total of 49 marginal seats – a third of all seats! With a new parliament of 151 seats, a new government requires 76 seats to win a majority.

  • Political Economy and the Australian Government's
    Political Economy and the Australian Government’s CCTV Programme: An Exploration of State- Article Sponsored Street Cameras and the Cultivation of Consent and Business in Local Communities Robert Carr Western Sydney University, Australia. [email protected] Abstract This article explores the political economy of Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) in Australia, providing new insights into the relationship between government policy and its economic implications. I have rationalised state-sponsored street cameras as a component in the cultivation of consent between the state and local communities; a mechanism for government to facilitate the flow of public funds to business through arrangements that are virtually unchecked and non-evidence based; a mechanism for government to facilitate profitable opportunities in and beyond the security technologies industry; and, a mechanism to normalise hegemonic social and political relations at the level of discourse. This article explores how government has assisted growth in the security industry in Australia. I draw on a case study about Kiama Municipal Council’s decision in 2014 to accept funding from the Abbott Government to install CCTV cameras through the Safer Streets Programme. This is despite historically low crime rates in Kiama and an inability to demonstrate broad support for the programme in the local community. This study reveals how politicians have cultivated support for CCTV at the local level and pressured councils to install these systems despite a lack of evidence they reduce, deter or prevent crime. Examined is how the footage captured on local council CCTV has been distributed and its meanings mediated by political and commercial groups.

  • House of Representatives Questions Without Notice
    C()M~!():O'Wl!AI.TIl OF AtSrllA:JA PARLIAMESTARY DEBATES ~.-' HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE Marriage QUESTION Tuesday, 15 September 2015 BY AUTHORITY OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Tuesday, 15 September 2015 HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 10228 QUESTION Date Tuesday, 15 September 2015 Source House Page 10228 Proof No Questioner Plibersek, Tanya, MP Responder Turnbull, Malcolm, MP Speaker Question No. Marriage Marriage Ms PLIBERSEK (Sydney-Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (15:21): My question is to the Prime Minister. A private member's bill on marriage equality introduced by the member for Leichhardt is currently before the House. It would take half an hour of parliamentary time to allow this bill to be voted on. It could be done tomorrow. Will the Prime Minister allow a vote on this bill and allow members of his party a free vote as he has publicly called for previously? Mr TURNBULL (Wentworth-Prime Minister) (15:22): I thank the honourable member for her question and I respect her very deep interest in this issue. Marriage equality, or same-sex marriage, is a very significant issue on which people of good faith, the best faith, honestly have different opinions both on the honourable member's side ofthe House and on our side ofthe House. Historically, issues of this type have been resolved in parliament by free votes. The honourable member is correct in referring to that. Another way of dealing with this is by a vote of the people. Our government has decided that the resolution ofthis matter will be determined by a vote of all the people via a plebiscite to be held after the next election.

  • 9. House of Representatives Results
    9 HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES RESULTS Ben Raue The Liberal–National Coalition Government obtained a small swing towards it at the 2019 Australian federal election, gaining a handful of seats. This result restored the government’s narrow majority, which now stands at 77 (of 151) seats. This is an increase of one from 2016, although the government had subsequently lost that majority through various by-elections in the final months of the previous parliament. This chapter covers the results of the 2019 election in the House of Representatives (the House), in individual seats and looking at the overall trends in terms of preference flows, the impact of early voting and the varying swings across the country. 2016 election To place the 2019 House results in context, it is worth recapping the main results of the previous election. In 2016, the first-term Coalition Government went into the election with a sizeable majority, but the loss of 14 seats left it with the slimmest of majorities. The Coalition won 76 seats in the House of Representatives. Labor won 69 seats, which was a net gain of 14 seats. The Greens and Katter’s Australian Party (KAP) retained one seat each, as did two Independent MPs. The Nick Xenophon 179 MORRISON'S MIRACLE Team (NXT) also gained a single seat in the House of Representatives. The Coalition suffered a swing of 3.5 per cent against it on primary votes. Labor gained a 1.3 per cent swing, alongside a 1.6 per cent swing to the Greens. The NXT gained 1.9 per cent in its first outing.
