  Alice Springs News, September 16, 1998
As citizens of South Australia, "qualified" residents in the Territory were entitled to the vote, although in 1882 legislation passed which excluded both men and women of Asian descent from enrolling to vote.
Finally, when South Australia became a state of the Commonwealth, Territorians' political rights were extended to a vote in both federal houses of parliament and in the right to vote in referendums.
The pay-off for South Australia was a commitment by the Commonwealth to continue with the building of the railway to Darwin.

In all my wanderings, over thousands of miles in Australia, I never saw a more delightful and fanciful region than this, and one indeed where a white man might live and be happy.
For the first time, geographically scattered Pitjantjatjara groups, formally, and of their own accord, articulated to white society that they were one people linked by law and could thus speak with one voice.
March 1981 the Governor of South Australia consented to the Pitjantjatjara Land Rights Act, and the Anangu took possession of their land.
