What?

This is a simple web-based system that aims to help you figure out who you should vote for in the upcoming Australian election.

How?

All you do is list your preference on the following listed polices and click the button. It then simply scans through a list of all the parties and their recorded support for that policy (if known), comparing the two.

The data used is from excellent spreadsheet by some anonymous Internet people. All credit should go to them for doing the hard work! (A snapshot of the data used here is viewable here, or downloadable as an OpenOffice spreadsheet, ~15kb).

It is completely anonymous.

Why?

Because it's really important that Australian voters are informed voters. Unfortunately our media does a pretty lousy job of helping keep Australians informed, focusing heavily on a small number of issues and giving a lot more attention to the bigger parties. Know your options!

Don't forget, usage of this page is no substitute for proper research. But that will take a long time and this is much faster.
