WA Electrical Commission investigating ALP Uranium Ad which could cause another election in a months time. Was on ABC1 Perth news this evening. If found to be correct and it looks like it is then should the ALP be made to pay for a second sdtate election ?

NO trace of this anywhere I can find. Better citation needed. (Assuming it's "Electoral" and not "Electrical" that is).. The best I can do is "THE Liberals today attacked an ALP advertisement on uranium mining, complaining to the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) that it was "false and misleading''. Liberal state director Ben Morton has written to AEC commissioner Warwick Gately requesting the ad be taken off air." which is from <http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/story/0,21598,24279421-2761,00.html> You are clearly very confused about process. Complaining *to* the AEC is not the same as the AEC accepting the complaint (which may or may not happen in due course of course), and the complaint being significant enough to cause the cancellation of the election! -- steve.hat.stephencarter.not.com.but.net Nothing is Beatle Proof!!

The whole post sounds a bit fishy.
