Don’t vote YES or NO to “the Voice” – it only encourages them.
Both sides have offered no PLAUSIBLE argument for voting either way. Each merely hopes that voters will be more disgusted with their opponents.
The YES camp stresses that the Voice will have no power to do anything anybody might not like but has a really good vibe, is supported by lots of celebrities and anybody not voting as they are told is a racist.

The NO camp pretends that the Voice could do something terribly dangerous and divisive.
Neither side offers any answers to the usual questions anybody should have about their arguments:
- What is it that they fear or welcome?
- Who is going to do it?
- When are they going to do it?
- Why are they going to do it?
- How are they going to do it?
Apart from a small minority of racists, most Australians think something should be done about the abysmal failures in Aboriginal policy.
Some think a “Voice” would at least be a nice gesture.
Others don’t.

The rest of us are wondering WHY these idiots are bothering us with their ridiculous “controversy”.
The law requires:
Except as otherwise prescribed, a person voting at a polling booth at a referendum shall, upon receipt of a ballot‑paper:
(a) retire alone to an unoccupied voting compartment at the polling booth and mark, in private, his or her vote on the ballot‑paper;
(b) fold the ballot‑paper so as to conceal his or her vote and place it in the ballot‑box; and
(c) leave the booth.
