Compare how Joe Bullock and Jo Lindgren voted on increasing scrutiny of asylum seeker management
Joe Bullock
Former Australian Labor Party Senator for WA July 2014 – April 2016
Jo Lindgren
Former Liberal Party Senator for Queensland May 2015 – May 2016
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that there should be more independent access to detention centres and more information provided about the management of asylum seekers under Australian government policy, including the interception of boats at sea
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?
