But the sad thing is that onions do not get a vote in this one—only the actual growers. I am advised that the Australian Electoral Commission conducted the ballot in relation to this particular onion levy. In relation to introducing a marketing levy, 20 voted in favour and 15 voted against. I understand there were 45 votes cast, which means that there must have been 10 informal votes cast.
