what happens to all those "non votes" the obes where people draw dicks or whatever on them, including the blank ballot papers people submit

Just gets tossed aside?

Counting them is a very long and boring process and your not allowed to leave whilst they are being counted.

Anyone not actually employed to count them aren't even allowed to watch etc. It is all kept pretty secret.

Yep. Practicing my **** drawing skills as we speak

Each candidate is allowed one scrutineer per ballot box. Aside from that, you're correct.

Makes me wonder, what sort of crazy stuff people put down on ballot papers

Nothing very interesting. Almost all intentional informal votes are blank. If they do put something, it's mostly poorly-scrawled obscenities or just scribble.

The occasional clever joke or amusing write-in candidate is always appreciated though.

One stands out from my time scrutineering: big smiley face saying 'I love you, sexy scrutineers'

Clearly by someone who has scrutineered in the past

So you're saying a picture of a stickman Rudd with a massive dong having sex with a rough sketch of Australia may not be as funny as I think it is?

Whenever I've been sorting votes at the end of the day (worked at a few now), we're all too tired to care about people's inane scribbles about not wanting to vote. Generally pushed aside straight away. Everything remotely clever has already been done before, but I guess it makes them feel better about themselves..

I read this thread title as 'sport quiz'. Needless to say, I was disappointed.

Hadn't been for about 15 years but they caught up with me and now I have a collection of fines.

Come and get me.

I was, but i moved and didn't change my address. They sent me a letter saying i have to update my stuff or i would be taken off the roll. I kept putting it off, and putting it off and then it was too late.

Guess i will cop a fine this year then......oh well.

Our area has been redistributed to Scullin, but prior to that we were in McEwen. There was apparently a ballot paper in which each name was crossed out and replaced with the name of V8 Supercar drivers.
