What really happened at Wentworth

Post by Patriot » Fri Nov 02, 2018 6:40 am

Now Larry explains what really happened at Wentworth where Labor Socialists were stuffed into the garbage can.

Sharma received about 40% of the primary vote and Phelps about 27%. No other candidate from amongst all the 16 candidates who nominated for the election came anywhere near Sharma in primary votes from all the 75.1% of the electors who bothered to vote. Time to change the system and stop bleating about preferential voting.

Why do we accept preferential voting? If you look at the AEC reports on votes counted, Sharma received 31,623 votes and Phelps 21,322 "first preference".

Mr and Mrs Phelps

Sky News’ pundits, radio and Press are still reciting “disunity is death” while they pore over Wentworth’s entrails. Well, I used to live in Wentworth, and I can tell you Saturday’s result had nothing to do with “disunity”.

My circle of friends included barristers, judges, pollsters, politicians and a range of Oxford Street’s sexually confused Greens. The Wentworth electorate was a perfect fit for Malcolm Turnbull, and he held it with large margins.

Those margins have now disappeared, not because the citizens of Wentworth adored Turnbull… he was a totally unadorable bore, but because the electorate is, and always has been, at least for the past half century, thoroughly Left, Labor, Green… which is exactly what Turnbull has always been himself.

Anyone supporting the homosexual lifestyle and the UN’s global warming hoax while vilifying basic Liberal principles, was a walk up start to win Wentworth.

Image

Turnbull knew full well that Sharma could never fit the bill in Wentworth, he simply wasn’t Left enough. He was a straight family man!

Image

But I’ll tell you who did fit the bill!… Yep, former leader, John Hewson (above) held Wentworth (from 87 to 95). He is yet another useless, true, red, Green Labor, warmist lawyer arsehole, pretending to hold a blue ribbon Liberal seat while imploring voters not to vote Liberal.

Image

It has changed around Sydney with electorates like Kingsford Smith, Zimmerman’s gay North Sydney (above) and even Warringah now at risk. The Libs can now win seats in the far west, like Lindsay.

The Libs need to alter course because being rich in the inner suburbs is no longer synonymous with voting Liberal.

Being rich means you don’t give a stuff about power prices.

Image

Being rich means worrying about what wine to take to the next dinner party, because every dinner party will include homosexuals who appreciate bouquets while looking for multiple new partners, attendees from the mentally-deficient global warming mob, a sprinkling of dumb GPs, Trump haters, and the consistently far Left judiciary.

Image

No surprises! Take Turnbull out of Wentworth and you only had the far Left Phelps left. At least Labor understood that and didn’t waste money competing.

Geographic demographics are not what they were, and as usual, "true" Libs are the last to wake up to it.

And what system should we replace preferences with, Cods?

Preferential voting gives a fairer result than any other voting system, apart from Preferential Preference voting or the Hare-Clark system. Preferences ensure that the candidate who most represents the views of the overwhelming majority of the electorate's voters wins. First-past-the-Post is a simplistic system which can produce unfair results and the least popular candidate can often win the seat.

Australian democracy was founded on the idea of fairness, Cods. I know it may be alien to someone from the UK where they have non-secret Ballots, where they use the simplistic first-past-the-post counting but downunder, we pride ourselves on inventing the secret ballot and having a voting system which ensures the most popular candidate wins the seat.

The only way we will ever enact change is if BOTH parties are tossed to the kerb. They will have no choice then other than to listen to the majority of Australians and regroup along less progressive lines.

Well after 2 weeks of counting in a close election determined by preferences where the liberal Candidate far exceeded the primary votes of 2nd placed candidate...Kerryn Phelps might finally be declared the winner on preferences.

Regardless of the stupid claims by some since before the election even took place. :du
