Compare how Bill Heffernan and Ian Macdonald voted on a Royal Commission into banking
Bill Heffernan
Former Liberal Party Senator for NSW September 1996 – May 2016
Ian Macdonald
Former Liberal Party Senator for Queensland July 1990 – July 2019
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should establish a Royal Commission into misconduct within the banking and financial services sector.
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?
