    Jacinta Price is apparently so embarrassed by the emphatic rejection of her self-serving dictatorial demand that remote indigenous communities vote "NO!" to the referendum for Recognition of First Peoples via a Voice to Parliament that she's modelling Donald Trump.

    It's been reported today in the media that Price has been casting slurs on the Australian Electoral Commission [AEC]. It appears she's attempting to damage the AEC and thereby undermine public confidence in its processes, leaving the AEC no choice but to defend itself:

    Price's unprecedented attack on the AEC follows bombastic outbursts prior to the referendum from Peter Dutton alleging the AEC's voting system was rigged against the "NO!" case - again similar to outbursts made by Donald Trump in relation to the USA's 2020 Presidential Election.
