Who can't vote 3rd party under a preferential system? Everyone should... I don't think I've ever voted directly for a major party in my life. Labor is always last out of everything left-of-Labor.

Well at least where I am, the Libs have covertly run independents to confuse the playing field and offer a moderate right candidate or something. Independents isn’t a guarantee for success, there is at least a 1% chance you’ll get someone who’s only slightly better than a party line drone.

And there’s also the Greens.
