Alex Gallacher
Former Australian Labor Party Senator for SA July 2011 – August 2021
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should increase the tax rate for working holiday visa holders so that they are taxed at a rate of 15% on every dollar earned up to $37,000
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?
