Vote Below the Line

August 18, 2010

The only photo in my flickr stream tagged “Election”. Disappointment all around that there haven’t been any megamagnets this election from Labor’s #2 Senate candidate, David Matthews! ;) I know, I know, it might seem insane to Vote Below the Line with the bajillion candidates on the NSW and other Senate ballot papers, but do [...]
