| 1 | In Sue v Hill, the High Court held that a petition to unseat a successful candidate on the basis of a lack of qualifications was an exercise in judicial power. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 2 | But does the onus ever shift to the candidate whose election is impugned? This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 3 | This approach may seem fair if the successful candidate or her supporters were implicated in sharp practices. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 4 | The most famous case is Woodward v Sarsons (1875),27 which addressed administrative problems with the newly enacted secret ballot legislation by invoking the “common law of parliamentary elections.” In Woodward, an eminent bench held that an election could be voided on two grounds: (a) if there was “no real electing at all”—meaning the constituency did not have a free and fair opportunity of electing the candidate the majority might prefer; or (b) if the election was “not really conductedunder the subsisting election laws”— meaning the errors were so fundamental that, in a sense, a different method of election was used to that laid down in the legislation.28 The application of these tests is a matter of great conjecture. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 5 | Although in an ordinary, triennial election of half the Senate, the quota for a Senate seat is over 14%, this tends to be achieved on preferences by one minor party candidate in each state. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 6 | It guarantees that electoral winners receive at least 50%11 of the two candidate preferred vote. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 7 | Primaries are unknown in Australia—though they have a few proponents amongst those who think they could re-vivify public interest and involvement, and break the stranglehold that party apparatchiks tend to have on candidate choice, especially for the lower houses of the various parliaments. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 8 | If excessive candidate numbers threaten the ballot’s integrity, a logical reform would be rationing access to nomination, such as increasing the number of signatures required to establish a person’s candidature. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 9 | Even more curious has been the spate of unusual candidate names and the legislative responses to them. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 10 | John Piss the Family Court and Legal Aid Party (a disgruntled gentleman, opposed to various aspects of the nofault divorce system, who stood as a candidate in Prime Minister John Howard’s electorate). This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 11 | But concern about the potential for such fraud was raised in the wake of recent revelations about malfeasance in candidate pre-selection in the Queensland Labor Party. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
