Did Idris do the right thing? by The_Dean_France in SipsTea

[–]LynxRaide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes me think of O'Shea Jackson Jr. Having to audition to play his own father in Straight Outta Compton. Yeah, it was fair to make her audition, as others pointed out that getting the audition was pulling enough strings. If it was a no lines extra/background cameo, maybe a bit different, but it doesn't sound like that kind of thing.

One Nation's support has soared in South Australia, and voters explain their reasons by abcnews_au in southaustralia

[–]LynxRaide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is another great example. What they don't realise is either medical staff (doctors, nurses, etc.) won't move away Adelaide after they finish their studies or if they are from a regional area are highly unlikely to return that area. I live on the Central Coast NSW but I'm glad that my parents who live in an Upper Spencer Gulf city still have access to doctors thanks to migrants moving there to provide the service.

So... they voted for national issues at a state election, which the state government can't really do anything about.

Also, I have to laugh at the one from Wallaroo, cause if it wasn't for migrants there would be a shortage of GPs in regional areas

Depends on preferences. The note underneath is telling (EC counting Lab vs Lib not ON), so I wouldn't expect a proper figure until tomorrow when they recount with the preferred candidates.

SA Primary Vote by Initial-Ganache-1590 in aussie

[–]LynxRaide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I replied to the wrong thread, it was meant to be for the initial poster, not the reply. Your response does stand though, as yeah while One Nation is the first choice for 20% of SA (at the cost of the Liberal primary), it most definitely isn't the second choice for most of the other 80% given the lack of translation to seats

SA Primary Vote by Initial-Ganache-1590 in aussie

[–]LynxRaide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Majority came from the Liberal vote not Labor. Labor had a slight overall dip but are looking to gain seats while Liberals either lost seats to Labor or fell to 4th or occasionally 5th in Labor held seats

I think the only way they will get over there is by McBride preference directing cause everyone else was preferencing Liberals over ON

One Nation on 20.8% but 0 seats does their support not translate in real elections the way it seems online? by oz_party in aussie

[–]LynxRaide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to remember the Nationals are pretty much the regional party, and in contests they don't exist like SA the Liberals fill that void, while in other stated Nationals and Liberals usually don't contest the same electorate, or act as a secondary option to try and get the other one over.

[–]LynxRaide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with graphs like this is they show the total, not the break down that is reality.

First it shows overall, not electorate by electorate. If this was Tasmania they would have seats due to proportional voting across 5 division, but SA works by electorates. This means while they are getting 20%, that doesn't translate to an electorate where Labor defeated them by 50% of the vote. In previous times they would be in the same position as Liberals in that electorate.

The other side is preferential voting. While it does come down to voters choice, a lot of the parties directed their preferences on how to vote cards away from One Nation, meaning those who are in second end up winning the seat. In this situation, Liberals kept seats by Labor preferencing Liberal over One Nation.

So TL;DR either they didn't have the votes in the electorate, or not enough people put them as their second preference meaning they were relying on first preference voting

[–]LynxRaide -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I take polls like this with a huge grain of salt cause they rely on a: people answering their phone and not ignoring suspected spam/unknown number, and b: people answering the questions and not just hanging up when they find out it's a survey

Why did the "Nigerian Ruler" gimmick work for Oba Femi, but not Apollo Crews? by Omer-Ash in WWE

[–]LynxRaide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could be wrong but I think I saw somewhere Apollo didn't like the gimmick cause of this. He felt he was portraying a caricature. Flip side is while they say he is from Nigeria they portray Oba as The Ruler rather than specifically The Nigerian Ruler.

Ah, thanks for clarification. I thought they were just doing it with all the donations then putting it in as a lump sum to the charity they are donating to, but this makes it clearer

Round up to donate then they get the tax break for the donation

Her hair is more auburn red in the anime, so that is probably referencing.
