Wow, this is wild. My electorate wasn't worth the trouble, apparently, because I was sent nothing.

I received a couple but only from the two majors. No texts and no public advertising either (due to SA's new laws). Very refreshing!

Good on 'em. I expect the streets over here to be littered for months with some of those signs.

Same. Safe liberal seat. Haven't seen anything.

Almost makes me want to move there.

When you're next looking for a house, don't worry about if the nearby schools are good, the property values, the parks, the shops, parking and transit, neighbours, none of that. The real secret is to make sure it's the safest seat in the country, whether you agree with that Member or not!

(it also helps that I try and avoid giving out my phone number to companies unless really necessary, so that could be why I haven't been getting those text messages)
