Michael Ronaldson

Former Liberal Party Senator for Victoria July 2005 – February 2016

Voted generally against a carbon price

How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should introduce a carbon pricing mechanism

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?
