I told you. I've been a Sydney FC fan since 2004. Never bothered with the old NSL as there was no team in my local area. Had a casual interest in Northern Spirit in the late 90's but that was it.

WOW, good on you for embracing the club of a graduate of the Leningrad Financial and Economic Institute and upstanding member of the State Commercial Industrial Construction Bank of the USSR comrade. Im impressed.

Looking at the results, it’s mostly cause of vote splitting. For middle-class voters it says 33% Labor, 25% One Nation, 19% Coalition and 11% Greens. That gives 44% for Labor/Greens and One Nation/Coalition, with the rest going to independents and others.

It does appear that “well off” voters are becoming more progressive, at least according to that poll. It’s odd that 22% of “well off” voters are picking the Greens when their policies are detrimental for businesses and people with a half-decent income.

We seem to be emulating the US in a sense where over there traditional working class voters are going to the GOP and the well-off college educated seem to be flocking to the Democrats.
