Linkers might like to peruse the offerings of senate
candidates in the last election.
I know that the NSW senate voting paper is more a voting
tablecloth (I think the Democrats represented by Sen
Ridgeway bowed
out at the last election):
<http://www.aec.gov.au/Elections/federal_elections/2007/candidates/sen_nsw.htm>
And the choices in Vic (Apparently still with Lyn Elison, a
Democrat in parliament)
<http://www.aec.gov.au/Elections/federal_elections/2007/candidates/sen_vic.htm>
For Tom K - the NT list
<http://www.aec.gov.au/Elections/federal_elections/2007/candidates/sen_nt.htm>
and for those in the ACT
<http://www.aec.gov.au/Elections/federal_elections/2007/candidates/sen_act.htm>
are there linkers from other states?
