No, we did not receive PUP propaganda in our letterbox, and I doubt you did either. :thumb

Re- the seat of Fairfax becoming 'marginal'.


Could Labor moving the goal posts and redefining electorate boundary distributions have altered the outcome for Fairfax any?

You can doubt all you want but you obviously have no clue ;)

Pretty sure you don't live in the areas I mentioned (from what you have posted) too.

Fairfax was just one marginal Lib seat .... now how many seats did Libs lose compared to Labor across Australia again Aussie?

I have family in Monavale, Narrabeen, and Chatswood and made a point of asking them if they received PUP propaganda in their letterboxes.

You must have been one of the "chosen ones", PUP must have thought you were an isolated mong or something (joking) given Clive targeted a very specific demographic not normally found on the lower or upper north shore.

Firstly Mona Vale (two words btw) and Narrabeen aren't lower or upper north shore. They are northern beaches. I said upper and lower north shore and some in the east.

As for Chattywoo. Well most there are related so perhaps they cut down by just putting one in each unit block.

Shakes head. Do carry on though :roll:

Chattywoo? Is that a new suburb of Sydney?

You sure you're from the North Shore BO?

I dunno why, but I had you pegged for a more warmer weathered creature... ie, QLD?

A Fisher candidate even?

Relax Mantra....BO is just trying to sound convincingly familiar with Chatswood. ;)

The locals used to call it Chattywoo....but I haven’t heard that term for yonks since our school played against them in sport.

mel did you have to look up parochial?
These days it is used quite often re Qld...
Usually re the NRL and more particularly state of origin... not a church or parish.
context mel... context.
1. narrow in outlook or scope; provincial not 2. of or relating to a parish or parishes
looks to me like you're a tad confused... in this case it is definition 1.

So Greenway and Chifley...
PUP less than 5% of the vote.... and they didn't run in Prospect/McMahon and Lindsay
Not a lot of people voting for PUP in those electorates that cover the Blacktown Local Government Area

BTW there are way too many holes in that Guardian article to take it too seriously. It's a classic case of making statistics say what you want them to say. Like climate change :roll:

The guardian has it's faults... has many in fact....but that’s not to say they are wrong about everything, or Clive Palmer.


And like I said, you don’t need to pour over stats and figures to see who voted for him and why he targeted a specific demographic Roach.

And yes, you used the wrong word to describe QLD voters, and are now trying to convince us otherwise.
:lol:

Look on the bright side... you wont make the same mistake twice. ;)
