Lol!

The Australian political system is known as the "Washminster" system, as it's a mixture of Washington (USA) and Westminster (UK) systems. But it does have some really peculiar attributes, like being preferential rather than first-past-the-post and you risk a $20 fine if you don't vote. And if you don't pay that fine and can't provide a good reason with supporting evidence (like a doctor's certificate) for why you didn't vote, you risk a criminal conviction. It does seem chaotic, but it becomes a pretty fun day for everyone. We just go to our local school, and you get your democracy sausage afterwards which raises money for the school or a local charity. You can also vote early (lke 4 million people have this year) if you're going to be working or overseas.

Because we have preferential and compulsory voting, we always end up with a lot of weird tiny parties getting into the Senate. A few parliaments ago a lot of the smaller parties got in and held the balance of power so they became king-makers, and they were really strange parties like "the motoring enthusiasts party" and "the fishers and shooters party", ones that no one had ever heard of and only got a tiny handful of votes. Our conservative party are called the Liberals too, just to really confuse foreigners. And Labour is called Labor as when they were founded it was believed that Australia would eventually adopt American spelling although the massive cultural connection to the UK was so strong that changing our official spelling was never even really considered. The democracy sausage is probably the best thing about election day, although I opted for a bacon and egg roll at my polling station this morning.

It's used when someone just numbers 1 to 9, etc in the order from top to bottom as it appears on the sheet.

The government still has to count it though because it is still a legitimate vote (someone could actually have genuinely voted in that order).
