Senate candidates for Victoria - Easy lookup
Do you remember coming to previous elections and going to vote above the line, then suddenly realising that you hadn't thought to find out about every senate candidate? So, there you were, obliged to fill out every box, trying to guess from the names the least evil of the fifty or seventy candidates you had never heard of. This election there has been a profound and potentially very empowering change. We will have the opportunity to vote for six only or more senate candidates. So we will be able to vote for the people and parties we really want this time and not vote at all for the ones we don't want or do not know. The article below is republished from the Australian Electoral Commission website. It gives the names of the candidates and links to their websites where known. At the bottom there is a collection of little-known independent candidates. In most cases you can use search engines to find these candidates. We will put up the candidates for other states if and when we have time, but you can get their names and affiliations and download an excel file with their websites and contact details here: http://aec.gov.au/election/candidates.htm.
