Link.

Geebuz, ye'd reckon he'd have better things to do than travel (at whose expense) to Townsville to watch a very close count.

Australia's most senior legal officer, George Brandis, is acting as a scrutineer in the last undecided seat in the federal election, where the Coalition is increasingly confident of a win.

Incumbent Ewen Jones pulled ahead in the Townsville-based seat of Herbert for the first time in the vote count this afternoon before Labor again took the lead by 35 votes.

No attempt to intimidate the AEC at all?

Gee, of all his Ministers, Turdfull sends the Attorney General, who happens to be a QC.....not that he has actually practised Law for many, many years.

But.....as you say, it is a waste of time, and someone's money.
