Compare how David Smith and Tim Storer voted on decreasing ABC and SBS funding
David Smith
Australian Labor Party Representative for Bean since May 2019
Tim Storer
Former Independent Senator for SA February 2018 – July 2019
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should decrease funding for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) and the Special Broadcasting Service (SBS)
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?
