| 1 | However to accommodate homeless and peripatetic citizens, those without a fixed address can enroll in the special category of “itinerant electors.” With the franchise essentially uniform, reform debates shifted in the 1970s to focus on to the weight of votes, and issues of apportionment, gerrymandering and redistributions (better known as redistricting in the United States). This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 2 | Such debates have been particularly acute in the two geographically largest states, Queensland and Western Australia, both of which had significant rural weighting in the form of a system dividing those States into different zones, with markedly different enrolment quotas. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 3 | The DLP was a formerly significant, Catholic breakaway group from the Australian Labor Party, which achieved electoral success in the Senate in the 1950s through the 1970s. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 4 | 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 |
| 5 | In contrast to the United States Supreme Court, for example, the High Court of Australia plays an infrequent (and even then often minor) role in the development of electoral law. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 6 | However, with roots in the Westminster tradition, including a heavy reliance upon parliamentary sovereignty rather than judicial review, it is not surprising that Australia achieved nationhood in 1901 without a Bill of Rights. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 7 | For a time in the 1990s, it appeared this trend might change. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 8 | Although not written in the Constitution, this freedom was drawn from the provisions of the Constitution providing for direct elections and was seen as essential to the fabric of representative government. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 9 | The decision opened up the possibility of a shift in position from relative parliamentary license in the construction of electoral law to routine judicial review. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 10 | Further, even if ACTV were to be narrowly confined to obvious matters of electoral speech, what limitations on campaign methods (such as currently exist in the form of pre-poll advertising blackouts, physical restrictions around the polling booths and regulation of how-to-vote cards13) are legitimate? This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 11 | This reflects a judicious drawing back, by subsequent courts, from what could have been a profound change in the balance of power between judiciary and parliament. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 12 | If the devil of democratic principle is in the detail of electoral regulation and practice, courts may be out of their depth. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 13 | Yet, in most jurisdictions, such appeals are limited in the interests of finality. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 14 | In fact, the cases have oscillated between two radically different approaches, particularly in the common situation where the legislation requires proof that the election result was “likely to have been affected” by the wrongdoing. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 15 | 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 |
| 16 | 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 |
| 17 | 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 |
| 18 | Namely, the principle that balloting is a snapshot of the electorate’s mind and hence ought to occur on the single day set in the writ. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 19 | Further, in the Anglo-Australian tradition, some judges may be reluctant to adjudicate electoral matters, under time and media pressure, during the heat of a campaign. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 20 | This is not to say that groups at the margin are not disadvantaged in the franchise. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
