Same but we don't want a democrats situation where people have the legitimate point they're both shit and therefore labor/liberal implode. of course liberals are suffering a well deserved implosion. Labor looks strong rn but there is potential to implode (look at vic labor) We should place pressure on labor to be much less evil (looking at you minns) so people want to vote for them rather than holding their nose while voting.

Labor and the Libs are far closer in Tassie than other places, but that's a combo of Labor being worse and the Libs being marginally less awful than in the mainland

Lotsa idiots down here though unfortunately
