Compare how Lidia Thorpe and Hollie Hughes voted on increasing legal protections for LGBTI people
Lidia Thorpe
Independent Senator for Victoria since February 2023
Hollie Hughes
Liberal Party Senator for NSW since July 2019
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should increase legal protections for people who identify as LGBTI (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Intersex) by, for example, getting rid of all current exemptions that permit discrimination against LGBTI people by religious insitutions (such as schools)
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?
