    No one else has even the slightest chance of gaining any influence in Australian politics.

    Our ranked choice system and the existence of a crossbench means that independents and minor parties actually do have some collective influence, and furthermore, that’s how we help shift the playing field for next time - look at how insignificant Greens were 20 years ago.

    Don’t do a donkey vote, just do an invalid or empty ballot. Preferably just put a huge line through the form. Makes it easy for election workers to know which pile to sort it in. A donkey vote is counted as a valid vote.
