Compare how Don Farrell and Trish Crossin voted on increasing scrutiny of unions
Don Farrell
Australian Labor Party Senator for SA since July 2016
Trish Crossin
Former Australian Labor Party Senator for NT June 1998 – September 2013
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should increase scrutiny of unions and employer organisations by, for example, creating a commission to monitor them and applying the same standards of disclosure to them as to corporations as well as the same penalties for misconduct
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?
