Compare how Malarndirri McCarthy and Barbara Pocock voted on ending immigration detention on Nauru
Malarndirri McCarthy
Australian Labor Party Senator for NT since July 2016
Barbara Pocock
Australian Greens Senator for SA since May 2022
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should close its Nauru Regional Processing Centre and stop all Nauru-based processing of people's claims for asylum
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?
