on the 2019 Animal Justice how-to-vote card below
for a zoomable picture of it, for finer detail. The
card below names the Animal Justice Party's two
candidates for the Senate, and also has a
photograph of its leading candidate, Ben Schultz.
The three largest parties resent the increasing success of smaller parties in the Senate. Nevertheless, such parties that each exploit a candidate's name; Hanson, Xenophon, Lambie and Hinch; together elected as many senators as the Greens in 2016. However, the Animal Justice Party's how-to-vote card advocates an above-the-line vote for a particular order of five other groups after its own group. Its card makes no mention of a below-the-line vote, which would give its voters more control over the order in which the candidates they might prefer would benefit from their vote.  |
