Elections coming up

WMS, I hate to say it, but R-NM is a good looking avatar. Doesn't suit you whatsoever, but it looks good.

South Australia is voting on the 18th of March, as is Tasmania; Victoria will be having an election in November.

True, it is, isn't it? I may take it for a spin every now and again...

Ah! Local Politics! They can be a lot of fun, if you know what's going on...

You are welcome to contribute to the discussions. My lack of knowledge about American politics hasn't really held me back-although the more I know, the less I discuss US politics

Certainly in the early days, I discussed it quite a lot more...and knew very significantly less.

SBS world guide is a great 'primer' as you say over there. It's reasonably cheap too-well, it isn't, but the value of the aussie dollar makes it pretty reasonable for you even with shipping. There is a scaled-back version available online; I think it's better then the CIA world factbook but maybe that's just me.

Victoria's is coming up soon, it'll be my first. I'm certain i'll preference the local (ALP) member, the deputy premier John Thwaites, over the Lib, but I'm not sure who'll get my first preferance. Depends on the quality of candidates the dems and greens put up I suppose.
