The Australian electoral system has historically been well regarded as fair and even handed. But it is run by public servants and most on the booths are teachers, both left of centre groups.

The Left regards electoral fairness as secondary to getting their way. The referendum has already been rigged as far as possible, consider;
1) No funding of the Yes and No cases as for previous referendums because the Yes case had a financial advantage.
2) The Yes case using the AEC colour.
3) Half the wording on the voting slip talks about "recognition" when that's merely arguing in favour of the "Voice".
4) Funding through corporate donors.
5) Public Servants backing the Yes case.
etc

Don't be surprised to see votes go missing, scrutineers excluded, etc.

Do you have a reason for undermining democracy in your own country? Apart from your disloyalty?
