Compare how Alan Ferguson and Russell Trood voted on maintaining or increasing CSIRO funding
Alan Ferguson
Former Deputy President Senator for SA August 2008 – June 2011
Russell Trood
Former Liberal Party Senator for Queensland July 2005 – June 2011
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should maintain or increase the amount of funding allocated to the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO)
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?
