Andrew Leigh
Australian Labor Party Representative for Fenner since July 2016
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should make the cashless debit card program (a program where welfare payments are put onto controlled debit cards, also known as Indue cards, for restricted use) voluntary so that people are not forced to participate in it
Now this is where it gets a bit tricky… Two people might vote the same way on votes they both attended, so their votes are 100% in agreement. They might also have voted in a way we’d describe differently when looking at all of one person's votes. If the other person didn’t or couldn’t have attended those votes we leave those out of the comparison. Because that just wouldn’t be fair now, would it?
