Yesterday's announcements by the Liberals to lock in native forest logging until 2040 and expand #toxicsalmon farming if re-elected will destroy Tasmania’s natural environment and drive species to extinction. Extinction is forever; governments are not. #VoteForests#Politas

From @GuardianAus: @In Yuendemu, the community home to the family of Price, shadow minister for Indigenous Australians, three in four people voted yes.” #Yes23
This should break anyone’s heart. Our most vulnerable, highest risk
Remote Aboriginal communities clearly endorsing the voice. We will be working on this more
1. Heavily indigenous booths in Qld have voted yes as follows: Palm Island 75%, Thursday Island 74%, Lockhart River 66%, Pormpuraaw 56%.
2. .In the NT, booths managed by the remote mobile teams consisting of a higher proportion of Indigenous Australians returned a Yes of 71.9%..The rest of the NT was 32.6%.
3. More analysis need, but it's clear Indigenous support is overwhelmingly Yes. Don't believe the lies.
4. Preliminary analysis In Bob Katter's seat of Kennedy, shows polling booths with a catchment of more than 50% Indigenous Australians returned a Yes of 69.5%. The rest of Kennedy returned a Yes of 18.5%.
5. It seems that the ~80% figure of Indigenous support was right
All the voting data is available from the AEC's tallyroom website (here: https://t.co/OyVNuJSiXx)
As for the data on Indigenous levels, the ABS website and its Census portal, plus the AEC's site for its maps of all electorates ... Narrowing down all the various booths, and their Indigenous levels, took a while!

Tomorrow Oct 14 Australia cast their #Voice for their First Peoples #Voice This is deeper than politics. It’s who we are as a nation - it’s about love of humanity. Can Australia love us? Who are we if we do not have love?
This is the question - Yes or No ?
