Topic: The Election – What Happened?
moderator: John Pope
As promised, our discussion will be about all aspects of the Federal Election.
Here are some possible questions for our discussion:
- Was the election fair? Were there any 'dirty tricks' like robo-calls, or voter fraud?
- Was the turnout better than in the last election? How does this make a difference?
- How did the media portray the campaigns? Which media did you depend on?
- Were the polls right? How important are polls to voters?
- What were the key turning points or issues which made a difference in the campaigns?
- Did strategic voting make a difference in the outcome?
- Did the new rules under the "Fair Election Act" cause problems for people?
- Do you think your vote made a difference?
- Did we get the government that we want, or the one we deserve?
- {Your question here}
Come out and have your say.
"Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve."
-George Bernard Shaw
See you there! Bring a buddy.
