Supporting my opinion that election rigging determines the outcomes of every election in Australia. At least since the 80's. Its probably about the time I started paying politics any attention.
This lady has a unique history in Australian Politics. She has run several times and in Federal as well. It's an interesting story (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauline_Hanson). She even spent time in prison to do with money used to pay election expenses but was aquitted in the end. A straight shooter. Says what most people are thinking.
But lets not jump to conclusions. It's only alledge-ed at this time:
Hanson to learn if sabotage email is real
Failed NSW upper house candidate Pauline Hanson may know by early next week if an email alleging voting sabotage is authentic.
Ms Hanson is challenging the March 26 election count, after being told "dodgy staff" at the NSW Electoral Commission had put 1200 votes for her in a pile of blank ballots.
The former One Nation leader says a source within the commission told her of the lost votes after forwarding her an internal email discussing an alleged act of sabotage by staff.

In the Court of Disputed Returns on Monday, Acting Justice Michael Grove directed the commission to produce by next Monday May 23 "all reports, documents and emails" related to Pauline Hanson votes.
Her lawyer Peter Rowe told the judge the authenticity of the email may be dealt with in an independent report instigated by the Electoral Commissioner.
Ms Hanson says the alleged sabotage may have cost her a spot in the new parliament, after she missed out on an upper house seat by 1306 votes.
