votes not wasted

Thanks for highlighting this article - frightening indeed! 
 
As for the voting system, I've never seen a vote for a minor party as a wasted vote. Sure they may not get in, but you have voted according to your own conscience and your vote is an important record of support for the Greens policies. You can also allocate your preferences to whoever you wish rather than following the party's ticket. Unfortunately Federal elections don't allow optional preferential voting (unlike NSW state elections where you can vote for just one candidate). Perhaps this is an issue worth lobbying the Greens about.
