Australians increasingly ‘checking out’ of two-party voting

RedBridge Group Director Simon Welsh discusses the “splintering of the vote” seen in Australian elections. This comes after the major parties were put to the test during last weekend’s council elections in New South Wales. “Australians are increasingly checking out of this electorate being a Labor vs Liberal-type contest,” Mr Welsh told Sky News Australia. “This appetite for a different place to place your vote is just increasing.”
