I disagree.
Not reforming the #politas democracy system, due to the (in)competency of #candiduds is not reason to abandon #TEC fixed terms.
Eg: Victoria has 4-yr fixed Local & State Parliament with 2yr offsets and fixed campaign periods.

I have never before thought of a state election as one big 'Sausage Off' competition between #candiduds ...
Today, my #politas commitment is to vote:
β’ once
β’ for women
β’ of non-major parties.
And visit at least three #democracysausage ππ³ polling booths to support the volunteer fundraisers.

If a parliament of democratically elected community leaders (MPs) is meant to be a 'true' cross-section representation of the identity(s) & idiosyncrasy(s) of the electorate's constituents that vote each into legislative power - then #Tasmania, we have a BIG problem!

Oh, the 'quality' of major party Leadership options and the 161 Tasmania #candiduds
... simply bewildering!

Did you both get totally confused by all the #candiduds and then fall into a demo-coma?
Welcome to rocky bizarre #politas, where everyone's a winner in politics. More MPs at a ribbon cutting than local news reporters.
Love how they do the central location of the candidates' campaign posters.
Less visual clutter and less of an eyesore of electoral propaganda paraphernalia spread across the whole landscape.

Congrats!! The first to respond with your sharp "language of words" observation.
π€£ I purposefully chose that invention very seriously.
The origin story is: I look at my 31 choices of 2025-28 state MP candidates, and 90% are DUDs, so, for me, it's a race to mediocrity of 1-7 #candiduds! Literally.
#Candiduds! Youβve coined a fab term there, Lisa. π€©
Good ole Googy AI wants to give me a variation - it canβt spell π
Candidus, Latin word meaning "white," "bright," or "pure."
Maybe it means Puerile. π
What do the voters want from the 2025 #Tasmania state election? What are the #candiduds promising?
Voters, Have #YourSay
β’ An #AFL Stadium ?
β’ Affordable, accessible, and universal, primary & allied #Healthcare ?
β’ Investment in #Education past Year 10 ?

Who is running a Sausage Sizzle &/or Cake Stalls on #Tasmania state Election Day?

We'd like to vote at a school or group who is fundraising, in the #Bass Electorate. π
