Compare how James McGrath and Eric Abetz voted on a transition plan for coal workers
James McGrath

Eric Abetz
Former Liberal Party Senator for Tasmania February 1994 – May 2022
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should develop and implement a plan to transition workers in the coal industry to other industries
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?
