GetUp! has released聽 for a number of seats in the federal election.
GetUp! does not give endorsements to any particular party or candidate. Instead, it聽provides 鈥渋ndependent voting guides鈥 with 鈥渙ptions on how to number their ballot for the best outcome on a given issue, such as more First Nations Justice, tackling rising inequality and real climate action鈥.
The progressive group has not released advice for every seat. Instead, its 鈥済uiding principle was to help GetUp! members have the greatest electoral impact鈥, presumably prioritising marginal seats.
In most seats selected, Greens and Labor candidates are highlighted as positive options alongside progressive independents and parties.
鈥淓ach how-to-vote card features at least two candidates, and many have up to three or four,鈥 the group said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 for voters to make the final decision on how to cast their vote.鈥
In the seat of Leichhardt, where Socialist Alliance is running , votes for SA, Green and Labor candidates.
Where voters choose the Green or Labor candidates, GetUp! has recommended giving number 2 to O鈥橲hane.
The group recognises that the Socialist Alliance聽and Green candidates have 鈥渧ery strong support for First Nations Communities鈥. It said Labor had 鈥渕oderate support for First Nations Communities鈥.
GetUp! will be mobilising volunteers to campaign on polling day to promote its how-to-vote recommendations.
