People often ask me which party I vote with – I get accused of being a stooge of various different parties by different people!   As an Independent, I decide on each vote on its merits and the values of my community, not based on how anyone tells me to vote.   As it happens, I vote fairly evenly with all the parties, which explains why I don’t fit into any party.   This data is sourced from the Federal Parliamentary Library as at 15 October 2024. Voting figures are regularly updated on my website. #AusPol #CurtinIndependent #KateChaney #CurtinElectorate #AustralianPolitics #VotingRecord
