CIA - The World Factbook -- Field Listing - Background International observers judged legislative elections in 2001 to be acceptable and a step toward democratic development, but identified serious deficiencies that should be addressed through reforms in the Albanian electoral code. Parliamentary elections held in August 2001 provided Fiji with a democratically elected government and gave a mandate to the government of Prime Minister Laisenia QARASE. Although nominally a constitutional democracy since 1991, the 1996 and 2002 presidential elections - as well as the 1999 legislative elections - were widely seen as being flawed. www.phatnav.com /factbook/fields/2028.html

Encyclopedia: Australian legislative election, 2004 However it must be accounted that in the 2001 federal election, as a direct result of the "Tampa Crisis", was predicted to be a Coalition landslide in which the ALP were preparing to lose up to 15 seats to the coalition. When a federal election is called, writs for the election of Senators are issued by the Governors of the Australian states, on the request of the Governor-General. As in all Australian elections, the second-preference votes of minor parties will be crucial in determing the outcome of this election, and the close of nominations was followed by a period of bargaining among the parties. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Australian-legislative-election,-2004

Election Summary. Antony Green Election Guide. Federal Election 2004. Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) After this February's state election, the Queensland Liberal Party looks poorly placed to fight a Federal election and the National Party also has its internal problems. The fact that almost no seats changed in 2001 masked the 2% swing to the government, only the second time in 35 years that a government had increased its support at an election. In six of the last seven Federal elections, the swing in New South Wales has been against the party at that time governing in Macquarie Street. www.abc.net.au /elections/federal/2004/guide/summary.htm

APSA50: Australasian politics panels This paper examines the role of TV coverage of international and domestic issues during the 2001 Australian federal election campaign, and its effects on voter decision-making. The November 2001 federal election was the first since the Vietnam War in which non-economic issues were prominent. Using an original content analysis of TV coverage, merged with the 2001 Australian election survey, interaction models yield significantly different patterns of reliance on international and domestic for groups of voters distinguished by the timing of their vote choice, and the level of their existing political interest and information. arts.anu.edu.au /sss/apsa/ABSTRACT/Panels.htm   (711 words)

PM says a vote for Labor is a vote for unions Opposition Leader Kim Beazley and Australian Council of Trade Unions secretary Greg Combet were reportedly furious when last month Beazley was photographed with union officials allegedly involved with a raid at labour hire firm Skilled Engineering (see 148/2001).
