| 1 | At a little over 2% of the national population, the Indigenous population is so diluted that it would not be feasible, except perhaps in the relatively lightly populated Northern Territory, to experiment with the United States solution of drawing “majority-minority” constituencies (so called because race conscious apportionment is used to ensure at least a few geographically based seats are dominated by minorities). This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 2 | Moreover, since a person’s name is central to his personal identity, administration of these laws can put electoral of- ficials in an invidious position.70 The logic of the tightened law is presumably to deny grandstanding, but the law does so at the expense of taking the color out of fringe candidacies. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 3 | 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 |
| 4 | 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 |
| 5 | It introduces the test of whether sufficient electors were so swayed, or at least so confused, by the misleading statements that on the balance of probabilities, the result was affected. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 6 | Full prisoner enfranchisement is so politically charged that is unlikely to occur in Australia. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 7 | At a minimum, such private codes and their application needs to be studied, so that the reasoning used in dealing with complaints about electoral advertising is scrutinized and publicly available. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 8 | Finally, the ballot is absolutely secret so that, once cast, votes are untraceable. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 9 | But the law is rarely so clear-cut. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 10 | What is the “common law of elections?” Does it govern elections today, and if so to what extent? This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 11 | The more common view, found in Queensland cases and High Court dicta, is that wherever electoral legislation is so detailed and comprehensive that it forms a code, the common law is ousted. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 12 | At most, a court should confine itself to cases interpreting the legislative provisions (if any) before it, so that cases establishing other principles are irrelevant. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 13 | It is not clear whether judges are in a position to decide, in retrospect, whether the campaign debate was so corrupted by misstatements that a new election is necessary. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
