Compare how Tony Sheldon and Alex Antic voted on protecting whistleblowers
Tony Sheldon
Australian Labor Party Senator for NSW since July 2019
Alex Antic
Liberal Party Senator for SA since July 2019
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should introduce legislation to protect people who disclose information for the benefit of the public interest and protect the journalists who report it
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?
