Actually, Peter Garret stated quite clearly that he had voted in the last election. He also said that he had voted in "most" of the previous federal elections. He also stated that it was his belief that he was on the electoral role. During his press conference, he was quite clear on all these things. Media reporting on Garrett's comments were confused. But that's only to be expected; it always is. Garrett was always perfectly clear and consistent. Yesterday he came up with documentary proof of him voting in New York in the last election. So what's the story? It's a bureaucratic screw up. Garrett thought he was enrolled, went for years thinking he was enrolled, and yet he wasn't. Mysterious, a libertarian who I assume has no love for bureaucracy now feels entitled to castigate Garrett for a mistake for wasn't his, and for being clear, consistent, and truthful. Do I detect a note of partisan bias in your comments? I do indeed.
