With preferential voting, you can vote Ellie [1], Ali [2], Dutton [last number on the page].

This doesn't "split the vote". If your first vote candidate doesn't get across the line, your vote goes to the second candidate.

If everyone puts Dutton last, he gets zero votes regardless.

Yes sad if #Freo is lost to WA Labor, BUT I trust Premier Roger Cook takes on the message that #Kimberley #Fracking should be off the table forever.

It’s time for the Australian Government - particularly the #ALP #AlbaneseGovernment - to face facts about the real cost of continuing to bend to the fossil fuel lobby and start working harder for #climatejustice

Scientists have linked fossil fuel companies to specific climate harms for the first time, with five Australian oil, gas and coal companies potentially responsible for $900bn in loss and damage from extreme heat alone.

Latest from me in The Guardian this morning.
Cost of emissions from five major Australian resource companies more than $900bn, study finds
US researchers link BHP, Rio Tinto, Santos, Whitehaven Coal and Woodside Energy to specific climate harms over three decades

I completely support the #LockTheGate reaction. I wonder if this will make front page of the #DailyTelegraph supporting all the agreived farmers against this dreadful overriding of their land rights ??
And #Minns even uses the anti #renewable quote ... where the fuck is this man's head ? 2/2
Anne Davies Continued from previous post: The threat of compulsory acquisition drew an immediate rebuke from Lock the Gate Alliance. Its national coordinator, Carmel Flint, said: It’s very disappointing to see Premier Chris Minns take the side of gas giant Santos against local farmers and Gomeroi Traditional owners who merely seek to protect land, water, and culture from dangerous gasfields and associated pipelines. Santos is the primary cause of Australia’s gas price hike because it has been siphoning our domestic gas and sending it to overseas markets for the past ten years. Rewarding this company with more gasfields is contrary to the national interest and will do nothing to reduce energy prices. Minns linked the need for more power and compulsory acquisition to saving the Tomago aluminium smelter, which this week spoke to its workforce saying that its future was uncertain beyond 2028 when its current electricity contracts are due to expire. He said NSW remained committed to renewables: Now I want to make it clear, of course, we support renewable energy, but the truth of the matter is, gas is part of the future as well. And when the wind isn’t blowing and the sun isn’t shining, we need to be able to turn on other sources of energy to keep industry going. The truth is, there is no future for domestic manufacturing without the continued presence of gas, particularly on the east coast. There is no renewable energy transition if we don’t have the gas there to back it up. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/live/2025/oct/29/federal-politics-parliament-victoria-queensland-bom-labor-coalition-anthony-albanese-sussan-ley-abs-inflation-apec-summit-afp-press-club-ntwnfb?filterKeyEvents=false&page=with%3Ablock-690199af8f0862851a58e7b4#block-690199af8f0862851a58e7b4

But who tests to ensure that net zero is being met. I got a request for donation from #LockTheGate to buy test gear to see that net zero is occurring as no testing of C02 & Methane was being undertaken where they’d checked.
