Compare how Kristina Keneally and Zed Seselja voted on targeting foreign interference in Australia
Kristina Keneally
Former Australian Labor Party Senator for NSW February 2018 – April 2022
Zed Seselja
Former Liberal Party Senator for ACT September 2013 – May 2022
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should address the issue of foreign interference in Australia by, for example, introducing new offences against acts such as sabotage, treason and espionage
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?
