This is an ad-free version of the podcast for Patreon subscribers.
In the final part of 'Just Vote 1', Ben runs through how parties encouraged voters to not number preferences to get a political advantage as first One Nation and then the Greens became major sources of preferences.
Ben also considers who might benefit from OPV today, and possible solutions that blend the best parts of optional and compulsory preferential voting systems.
