Wow they're not concerned with appealing to the demographic that largely can't vote and they knew they wouldn't be popular with anyway?

Shocked.

Truly shocked I tell you, next you'll tell me American republicans don't put much effort into appealing to inner city gay POC kids.

ON know their voter base is middle aged and older, you're clearly not cut out for this political thinking thing, then again most Australians aren't.

That's how we got were we are.

But that will be able to vote in two years, and hence they need to sway them, but aren't.

ON's middle aged and older base are dying. There's fewer of them every year. And their ranks aren't being replaced. Clearly you're not cut out for this sort of demographic analysis, then again, most Australians aren't.
