That's not true because in our electoral system 2nd, 3rd etc preferences count;
to put it bluntly they count as much as the first preferences if the canditate
doesn't hit 50%+ on the first count.
If you did not want to nominate your preferences
then you were at liberty to do so but you would have been the odd one out;
just as the anti-vaxxers are the odd ones out!

Obviously you have never played a team sport mate; that when
the final whistle is blown that you are a good sport and that you accept the scoreboard....eh?

All our political parties accept the election outcome, the Government has been
formed and QE2 has given her imprimatur to it via her proxy, the GG.
