One has to have standards, particularly in hats.

We have a couple of Akubra hats at my place , one my father's about 60 or 70 years old and then my husband's which is about 15 years old

All the more reason to go to electronic voting where result can be tabulated in minutes not days.

I have reservations about electronic voting
I refer to the NSW iVote system
This system has been marred by security and other issues
It was then used in the 2021 elections and some contested results went all the way to the NSW Supreme court which ordered a re-vote in 3 wards.
The electoral commission then stopped using it in the following 2023 State election.

The Australian Electoral Commission. Especially the South Australian Division. They have one job to do and get four years notice to do this. Hold State Elections and count the votes. Simples.

We had an election in SA on 21 March. A few glitches, like the electoral roll not being accessible, and so on. But after the election it emerged that many people working on the day had not been paid, 3 weeks later.

We live in Barunga electorate. It's pretty much Yorke Peninsula. We were the last electorate to be declared after a recount. One Nation was declared winner after 10 days. Ok. By 68 votes. Her members were very active in the community pre election. One town went full blown orange. So, we are done right? Nope. Today a box of uncounted votes for this electorate were found. 84 unopened ballot papers. So another recount. There is now going to be an external inquiry into the Electoral Commission.

I read about this on news.com.au.
