Compare how Glenn Sterle and Jana Stewart voted on compulsory income management for welfare recipients
Glenn Sterle
Australian Labor Party Senator for WA since July 2005
Jana Stewart
Australian Labor Party Senator for Victoria since May 2022
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should introduce a hybrid welfare quarantining regime to replace the Cashless Debit Card (CDC) regime and it should be compulsory for certain recipients
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?
