1 But even in malfeasance cases, a hardline approach against the respondent on the question of remedies is in tension with the general law rule in Briginshaw v Briginshaw.26 Briginshaw is a well-known High Court case that provides that the standard of proof in civil proceedings is effectively increased where the allegations are serious or would have grave consequences. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. Australian Electoral Law
2 This remains the case today, as Australia is now the only western nation without a Bill of Rights in some form. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. Australian Electoral Law
3 The case posed a vast array of questions for electoral law. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. Australian Electoral Law
4 For electoral case law to develop in a sensible and principled way, courts depend on counsel familiar with both constitutional and electoral practice. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. Australian Electoral Law
5 Given the secrecy of the ballot, this may be a difficult onus to discharge in the case of people alleged to have voted who should not (or vice versa).23 The opposing approach is that once contraventions capable of affecting the result are established, the fair elections ideal requires the respondent candidates to disprove any reasonable doubt over their election. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. Australian Electoral Law
6 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
7 This is particularly clear if the legislation states that the type of error involved in the case will not affect an election unless it was “likely the election result was affected.” This rule provides a greater challenge to a petitioner than the test in Woodward. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. Australian Electoral Law
8 The case involved a challenge to an independent conservative member, who allegedly misled electors during the campaign, by stating that he would not support a minority Labor government if a hung parliament resulted from the election. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. Australian Electoral Law
9 The case also raises issues about public access to the membership lists supplied for registration purposes. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. Australian Electoral Law
10 Second preference cards are deemed unlawful when they would be likely to mislead an ordinary, possibly gullible, elector on the doorstep of the polling booth.81 A borderline case illustrating the problem occurred in Queensland in 1998, and led to reform which micro-manages how-to-vote cards in an attempt to reduce confusion. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. Australian Electoral Law
