Compare how Anne McEwen and Carol Brown voted on protecting whales within Australian waters
Anne McEwen
Former Australian Labor Party Senator for SA July 2005 – May 2016
Carol Brown
Australian Labor Party Senator for Tasmania since August 2005
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the Federal Government should protect whales within Australian waters by, for example, taking action against the Japanese Government over its whaling program in the Southern Ocean
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?
