Compare how Meryl Swanson and Tim Watts voted on reducing the corporate tax rate
Meryl Swanson
Australian Labor Party Representative for Paterson since July 2016
Tim Watts
Australian Labor Party Representative for Gellibrand since September 2013
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should reduce the corporate (or company) tax rate for all corporations (not just for small business)
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?
