Apart from the 33 percent against measure, there seems to be a subtle but significant difference between present and allowed to vote (including by proxy) and, in NSW, actually voting. I’m pretty sure that if anyone in NSW ticked the ‘abstain’ box, that vote would not be counted in the calculation of the required percentage. That obviously makes it easier to get the 25% ‘no’ vote up, rather than the ACT’s 33%, so maybe it all evens out in the end.
