| 1 | 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 |
| 2 | ACTVsuggested that the High Court might take a more active role in shaping electoral law in Australia, perhaps even a role similar to that played by the united states Supreme Court. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 3 | Although less restrictive than in the united states (where felons can suffer disenfranchisement for life), the temporary federal disenfranchisement of prisoners serving sentences in excess of 5 years and those serving just 1 year in several state elections robs thousands of otherwise voiceless citizens of their political birthright.

This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
| 7 | The Federal Election Commission was specially set up in the united states to administer the Federal Election Campaign Act, which governs the financing of federal elections. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |

| 9 | However, the obvious alternative model, viz making appointments subject to an open process of parliamentary scrutiny (in line with the united states model of Senate review of significant federal appointments) may simply result in a greater politicization of appointments. This makes 2003 a good time to reflect and take stock of Australian electoral law. | Australian Electoral Law |
