Goldys_Fishin 0 Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Hi Guys and Girls...Dont know where to put this but here it is. Its an e-mail i got sent today.Dear Friends As you are aware Australians will be voting in the Federal election on 21 August. With the Labor Government “on the nose†political analysts expect the Greens to increase their vote significantly, especially in the Senate. A swing of just a few percent would see the Greens with as many as 8 Senate seats thus handing them the balance of power – a disastrous situation for all Australians but especially so for those of us involved in the shooting and fishing sports. So please, help us stop the Greens from gaining control of the Senate.We need your help in two key ways. Firstly we need your vote. The Shooters and Fishers Party are running 2 Senate candidates in South Australia Secondly we need your help in passing on our message – please pass on this message to your family and friends whether or not they are shooters or fishers. Stopping the Greens is important for all Australians. The attached "anti-Greens" Pamphlet and Poster show how much a threat the Greens really are. We are asking supporters to help us 'spread the word' via their email networks and 'word of mouth' at club meetings, at the range and amongst family, friends and work colleagues. If you haven't visited the Shooters and Fishers Party website yet, please have a look at: http://www.shootersandfishers.org.au/ where there's several video clips outlining our aims.Click on the 'You Have 2 Votes', 'Why Get Political' and 'How You Can Help' tabs and then click onto the video 'play' button in the middle of the screen. Thanks for your support. Regards Shooters and Fishers PartyPO Box 1201 St. Marys NSW 1790Tel: (02) 9833 1118Fax: (02) 9833 1117Web: shootersandfishers.org.au Quote Link to post Share on other sites

weaver 271 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 If you would like to vote Labor but not support The Greens, you will need to vote below the line and number EVERY box consecutively from the Labor Party as “1â€Â. To best represent your fishing interests you would also need to ENSURE that The Greens are last in your numerical order (ie. they have the highest number). On the House of Representatives Ballot Paper you will need to number every box. Again, by ensuring that all Green votes are nominated last in numerical order (ie. they have the highest number), you will then be aiding in blocking The Greens gaining the power they require to lock anglers out of their traditional fishing areas.

osd 1 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 If you want to vote for the one of the major party's you can still do it just put the shooter and fisher party first and the major party second by filling out all the boxes below the line like weaver said. Come on people get behind our sports and put the 'Green party' absolute last on both forms Quote Link to post Share on other sites
