Post Election Report On Dumbness

The Green Man once again presents his post election analysis of dumbness in the Australian electorate. As all Australians would know, but possibly others may not, voting is compulsory in Australia. Whilst this is a concept that many may find strange The Green Man thinks it is a good idea.

One consequence however is that even the dumbest in the electorate are required to turn up at a polling station and mark their ballot paper. Fortunately this group manage to eliminate any affect they may have on the outcome by their incapacity to number six boxes in order of their preferance without stuffing it up.

Here are the top ten for the 2007 Federal Election

Electorate People unable to to number 6 boxes correctly Swing AllVotes
Watson 7321 0.16 78575
Blaxland 7289 -0.78 76811
Chifley 6460 -2.86 80455
Prospect 5937 -1.64 76412
Fowler 5849 -1.16 75876
Bennelong 5582 0.22 90013

Parramatta 4966 -3.07 80343
Werriwa 4873 -1.44 74528
Banks 4664 -1.79 75939
