Australia State Election
24th of March was the Australian NSW state election. All Australia's citizens must cast a ballot. If they live overseas they have to vote by post. It's a responsibility. In my suburb I could see many people who went to the local polling booths to vote. It shows that Australia is a democratic country. I 've never voted in my home country, but I think I will do this in here when I get my citizenship in the future.
