| 1 | This, combined with a judicial reluctance to imply new rights into the text of the Constitution (such as from general conceptions of democracy), has meant that Australian courts rarely subject electoral laws to judicial review on rights grounds. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 2 | 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 |
| 3 | Under the general judicial review legislation, most administrative decisions made pursuant to a statutory power are potentially subject to (i) the provision of written reasons, and (ii) natural justice review. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |

| 5 | But the arguments against opening electoral processes to general judicial review are that electoral purity is an unrealistic goal and that courts should be reticent to interfere if the electoral authority has acted reasonably. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 6 | The newest broadcast medium, the internet, is yet to feature prominently in Australian electoral campaigning, although much general political activity occurs via the internet.84 The present, albeit limited system of regulation of electoral and political material, is yet to be reviewed to ensure its equal application to the internet.85 Perhaps the most interesting question concerning electoral broadcasting in Australia is the manner in which private broadcasters selfregulate. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 7 | It requires that the electoral commissions be open and engaged with the media, and involved in two-way public information and education activities with the general community. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
