Compare how Dave Sharma and Julian Simmonds voted on increasing support for the Australian film and TV industry
Dave Sharma
Liberal Party Senator for NSW since November 2023
Julian Simmonds
Former Liberal National Party Representative for Ryan May 2019 – May 2022
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should increase support for the Australian film and television industry by, for example, increasing the amount of Australian programming spending required by television broadcasting organisations
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?
