The road to a republic is still long and winding

Article Abstract:

There was great joy after the final vote was carried at the constitutional convention in Australia. Republicans celebrated their victory for a direct presidential election, but opponents seemed to be emotional and out of place. The proposal goes to the people where it needs to win a majority of the states. Some give the convention support while others want a people's vote to select a president.

Branch stackers' days are numbered

Article Abstract:

Branch stacking has become a common practice for the Australian Labor Party, but the practice is a dangerous one. The operation often violates election law, and police forces will not ignore allegations of fraudulent elections. A combination of backlash by rank-and-file Labor members and police investigations is exposing and ending the practice.
