| 1 | Imagine a natural disaster causes polling to be spread over a week instead of a day, but the process to elongate polling is not authorized by law. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 2 | 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 |
| 3 | But this would not be because the result can be shown to have been affected—there may be no way to discover how the people voted on the extra polling days—but because a deeper principle is involved. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 4 | Until then, it remains ironic that some libertarian minded Australians prefer to go to jail, for a symbolic period, rather than be compelled to vote, whereas a significant number of prisoners want to vote, but are unable to, despite the electoral commissions employing mobile polling booths in prison for those inmates who are entitled to vote. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |

This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 6 | This allows electors in a mobile community to vote easily anywhere in their constituency, or indeed throughout their state or territory by means of an “absentee” ballot on polling day. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 7 | But it also means local polling officials do not build up familiarity with regular voters. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 8 | But this may be because it is almost impossible to find evidence to contradict an elector whose name was marked off at different polling booths, but who denies voting twice. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
