    So I received a "How to Vote Liberal" brochure in the mail today. I set it on fire. It didn't burn well. Disappointing.

    They should go in coalition with the greens, if they get anywhere.

    Main issues are - Environment and Sex, perhaps even Sex in the Environment.

    Greens may win a few lower house seats.

    I went through the senate form, filled it out 1-60.

    I had to make sure that One Nation and Family First were the absolute lowest.

    I voted Greens in the Senate, so it is safe to assume that those would be lowest by default with my vote. Sex Party ftw in the reps.
