Any opinions on the chances of Legalise Cannabis to gain a seat this election? They came very close to beating One Nation to a QLD senate seat in 2022.

Oh did everyone know that election funding is given ONLY to whoever you pick as first? Even when your vote trickles down to whoever wins, that $3-5(or so?) is only provided to your first choice?
I'll still be putting the Animal Justice Party number 1, but it's good to know.
(provided the candidate or group receives at least 4% of those first preferences)

2022 Federal Election: Election funding payments finalised page. Interesting to see which parties and independents received funding. Legalise Cannabis Australia received a (relatively small) $15,121.09.
