This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 4 | 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 |

| 13 | 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.
