I like the democracy sausage thing because it doesn’t feel like astroturf, it’s a bit of a laugh and one of the few things Australia likes about itself without a hint of cringe. Also, it wasn’t that long ago we had people discussing doing away with compulsory voting and the democracy sausage is a bulwark against that. Whatever else you can say about Australia, at least our political establishment isn’t actively invested in preventing people from voting.
