How to vote for the Greens - the truth about preferences

Any suggestion that the Greens are preferencing the Liberals or Nationals in this state election is entirely false.

Greg Barber

The Greens are not recommending to voters to preference the Liberals (or Nationals) in any seats. The Greens recommend preferencing the ALP in the vast majority of the marginal seats - and in most other seats. In some seats, we will leave it to the voters' choice, by providing a split ticket that allows them to Vote Green and then preference whichever major party they choose.

In the Upper House the Greens are preferencing like-minded parties first, then Labor, then the Conservatives, then the candidates with the most extremely opposed position to The Greens. By contrast, the ALP has preferenced the so-called Country Alliance ahead of the Greens. This Party is essentially a Shooters-and-Loggers Party.
