Compare how Bridget McKenzie and Lidia Thorpe voted on extending Jobkeeper Payment
Bridget McKenzie
National Party Senator for Victoria since July 2011
Lidia Thorpe
Independent Senator for Victoria since February 2023
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that The JobKeeper payment, which is part of the federal government's response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, should be extended for industries that are still being adversely affected by the pandemic, such as the tourism industry
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?
