Time for the Poll Bludger’s bi-monthly virtual tin-rattle. This instalment’s case for special pleading is made by the very fine job this site did in keeping the nation posted about the Secret Harbour by-election on Saturday night (hats off to the ABC television news for showing a dejected Labor campaign worker viewing the results on my site rather than theirs), and the outstanding quality of the Victorian state election guide on which I’ve been very hard at work and will hopefully have ready to roll in a couple of weeks. Donations are gratefully received through “become a supporter” buttons at the top of the site and bottom of each page.
