Voting in Australia is conducted by a secret ballot box.Australia's citizens aged 18 years of age must be in a electoral roll to vote.People who are away from home can still vote they send a postal vote.In some democratic countries such as USA and Britain voting is not compulsory.Some Australians believe that everyone should have a choice to vote or not to vote.

You also number 1 to 5 number 1 means you really want them.number 5 means you do not want them.
