Compare how Sam McMahon and Tony Sheldon voted on the Paris Climate Agreement

Tony Sheldon
Australian Labor Party Senator for NSW since July 2019
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should amend its laws and policies to meet the objectives of the Paris Climate Agreement
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?
