ANU Poll 2013: Electoral Reform

This poll is the fourteenth in an ongoing series of polls being undertaken by the Social Research Centre for the ANU. Their purpose is to assess Australians' opinions on important and topical issues, with an emphasis on international comparisons. These polls are typically conducted three times a year, or about every four months. Some questions appear in every poll in order to provide information about changes in opinion over time; the majority of questions appear in one poll only. The main focus of this poll was on attitudes towards elections and voting reform. The poll covered issues such as the act of voting, funding and integrity of elections, and minority government and representation. Demographic and background variables include gender, age, household composition, country of birth, highest level of education, employment status and income. This research is used to inform public debate and policy about issues affecting Australia.
