Compare how Jane Hume and Matthew Canavan voted on increasing freedom of political communication
Jane Hume
Liberal Party Senator for Victoria since July 2016
Matthew Canavan
Liberal National Party Senator for Queensland since July 2014
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should increase freedom of political communication in Australia by, for example, protecting people's right to inform others about issues and events in the public interest
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?
