@AuSenate - What impact has the Bob Day decision had on legislation he voted for? I couldn't find anything in Odgers. Senator Dastyari

@JohnWren1950 RT “@AuSenate:@samdastyari@janeenorman Vardon v O'Loghlin. 1907. 'nuff said.” -
it was the same for rod culleton whose election was also ruled invalid.
-
So we have a situation in
#auspol where illegally-elected MPs & Senators can swing a vote and the legislation still stands? Seems legit. -
he was INVALIDLY elected - this has happened before which is why there's a precedent
-
Sure. But if he was ineligible to be inthe senate, then it follows his vote must also be ineligible. Perhaps the precedent is wrong.
#auspol -
perhaps, but that's the view of the courts
-
Sure...but precedents get challenged all the time. I'm confident this one will be too at some point.
