Compare how Marise Payne and Penny Allman-Payne voted on transgender rights
Marise Payne
Former Liberal Party Senator for NSW April 1997 – September 2023
Penny Allman-Payne
Australian Greens Senator for Queensland since May 2022
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should support the rights of transgender people (including genderfluid, nonbinary and genderqueer people) by amending laws and policies to support healthy lives by, for example, ensuring that appropriate healthcare is available nationwide and that trans people are protected from discrimination and harassment
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?
