Are you not shocked by that statement?

I know that intellectually we all understand that everybody is different, but do we know that internally?

I’m not convinced that we do.

Working in the polling station was an eye-opener.

Several people looked, on the surface, to fit in the general classification of normal.

But, when it came to writing some numbers in boxes on a piece of paper, they came into their own.

Some of them only showed up after voting had closed and we were sorting the votes.

What they wrote or didn’t write on those pieces of paper picked them out as different.

For others, it was apparent while they were there that they were different.

One person didn’t understand that they only had to write up to 12 numbers in any order on their voting slips.

Another, brought in by their spouse, was so clearly suffering from advanced dementia that they shouldn’t have been voting at all.

And they didn’t.

Their spouse got to vote twice.

In this polling station, we had just over 1,000 people attend.

There were only 121 informal votes meaning that around 90% of the attendees apparently did make an effort to understand what they were voting for, but I’m not convinced that was the case.

Overall, it was an orderly and calm display of democracy in action with no attempt by anyone to disrupt the process.

Of course, it’s not a true democracy because we, the voters, don’t get to choose the candidates.

We only get to choose between the candidates on offer.

That’s no different to any other democracy and is the best we can hope for in any country.

Australia doesn’t use machines to accept or tally the votes, that is all done by the voter writing on a piece of paper and the polling station staff manually sorting and counting them at the end of the day.

Party scrutineers monitor and witness the ballot boxes being sealed before voting starts, and the boxes are unsealed in the presence of the scrutineers at the end of the day. 

There is complete confidence that there has been no tampering with the votes.

So that’s how we vote in Australia.

This time we got a change of Government which will be interesting to see how that pans out over the next three years.

I’m still building my online business because I don’t have any confidence that our economy, like the global economy, will have a nice easy time.

P.S.  With every election, the candidates and their parties spend massive sums across multiple platforms to get the result they want, to be elected.

Only one will get that result, and it doesn’t always go to those who spend the most.

It does, however, often go to those who get the most eyeballs on their promotions.

Marketers know that, on average, it takes at least seven views of your offer before a sale or conversion happens.

That’s why so many launch offers try to have a no-brainer, super value deal for those who take action immediately.

They are leveraging the FOMO principle.

This offer isn’t on launch.

It’s still a no-brainer product that does what it says on the tin.

If you want to get Google to help you get people on your offers, then this is one way to do it quickly.

You could use these methods for a profitable Fiverr gig, and then you won’t need to have a Google account or any product to sell.
