| 1 | They are better placed to guard their independence, both by uniting legislatively and because the public accepts the idea that individuals are only entitled to vote in a party preselection if they are fully paid up members of that party, and thereby committed to the party’s constitution and internal discipline. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 2 | Meanwhile, a court held that the hard-right One Nation party had been fraudulently registered in Queensland, because its grass-roots membership was kept separate from the registered party (to enable the party’s elite to maintain control).64 The legislative response to such scandals has been a tightening of registration eligibility and ongoing scrutiny of the register in several jurisdictions. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 3 | PARTIES, CANDIDATES AND CAMPAIGNING Party pre-selections and the role of the electoral authorities Recently, allegations of “rorting” in party pre-selections have gained widespread attention. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 4 | (“Rorting” is an idiomatic term used to cover any self-serving malfeasance, whether illegal or not.) Pre-selections are party ballots, or other internal mechanisms, to determine a party’s official endorsement of candidates for public elections. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 5 | Despite this, concerns with the rorting of party pre-selections have led to legislation in Queensland to involve electoral commissions in auditing, and potentially conducting, internal party ballots. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 6 | (The party’s rules made voting rights contingent on official enrolment.) Political activists and politicians had thus admitted contaminating the official electoral roll—albeit in relatively small numbers and with the motivation of rorting party preselections rather than public elections. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 7 | The House of Representatives voted on party lines to uphold his qualifications and not refer the matter to the courts.20 Yet any person, invoking the “common informer” provisions, can litigate such an issue and the point can also be used as an “irregularity” to found a post-election petition (assuming the member’s disqualification remains at the following election). This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 8 | In either case, the independence of the judiciary could be tested, as the court would need to decide on the relevance of Parliament’s prior ruling (made in all likelihood on party lines) on the member’s qualifications. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 9 | But in adopting the common law test, the Court took a second, more nebulous path, by asking whether the candidate’s pledges about which governing party he might support were so misleading, and whether they had permeated the electorate so deeply, that the whole election had been corrupted. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 10 | Those who blanch at the sight of a party or administration gaining political control with less than 50% of the vote see this as a noble aim. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 11 | Members of upper houses are invariably elected on some form of the single transferable vote (STV).52 STV ensures a moderate level of proportional representation (PR), and hence the possibility, if not likelihood, of minor party control of these houses of review. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 12 | 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 |
| 13 | Compulsory preferences increase minor party leverage, since all their votes remain in the count and hence influence the result. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 14 | 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 |
| 15 | Proof of rorting in pre-selections has led to calls for public law to involve itself in the traditionally private realm of party endorsements. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 16 | For a long time, public law in Australia was of marginal importance to party affairs. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 17 | But since Baldwin v Everingham, it has become increasingly common for Australian courts to oversee party rules (particularly in pre-selection battles). This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 18 | However, the Court in Baldwin was only required to force the party in question to abide by its published rules; it did not seek to modify those rules. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 19 | For the electoral authorities, involvement in party pre-selections raises pointed questions about their proper role and resource levels. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 20 | The more electoral authorities become entangled with internal party administration, the more potential exists for a blurring of public perceptions about their role. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
