Just wanted to report on today's election that went on in QLD, I know for most it doesn't really concern you as you don't live here but you might be interested. From what I read the LNP (Liberal National Party) won the election, the reason I am bringing it up here is because I have been reading up on the Gay Marriage Rights in Australia Facebook back and they are saying how Campbell Newman, the leader of that party is bad news for gays and may repealed civil unions (But I am hearing conflicting reports, on another post I read someone mentioning they won't really able to control much of the law I think, so I am not sure if they make much of a difference, I just started voting now and I am still new to politics, which I realize I may have a side that I didn't know was interested in it).
My first vote went to the Australia Labor Party (I almost voted LNP because I wasn't aware they were pretty homophobe, I didn't do enough research), I almost voted LNP but I placed them in second in the ballot. Changed my mind at the last minute which might have been a save, I think ALP however was supportive but not too sure of that.
I think however the only reason LNP even won is because well, voting is compulsory which is the problem, it causes people (Like my mother) to just go over there and tick whatever box without really thinking about it (I might have made the wrong choice or not but aleast I researched some of it, even if it wasn't a lot) so they are like whatever, I don't care.
Due to this the votes that actually count from the people who care don't count too much,. They need to make it non compulsory so people don't do this. One day I am telling you, someone will be elected to be a prime minister or president or whatever, and he will be evil against all things, corrupted with power and make Earth hell. He could take us hundreds years back where racism, homophobia, sexist were common and even Christians could go back to the way they were, killed for their religion or jailed for it. And you know what, it will be those who just voted without any research at all, just ticked the box (Even if the other guy is a good guy) and said whatever, then they will be wishing they never did that.
Even if I vote for the wrong guy, the corrupted guy aleast I know I tried to make a difference and I tried to choose the right guy unlike some people.
Sorry for the little rant it's kinda of on my mind lately, people need to know who they are voting for because who knows, one day things could get worse. Also like I said above, I might have discovered a side that's interested in politics (A major part is electing the ones who are for gay marriage or trying to)
