Just announced. Nearly 80% participation, 61% yes, 38% no.
I'm really glad that the yes side won. --- Winner of the Third Hacked User Contest. World's #1 Phoenix Wright fan. ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's great and I voted yes but for Americans this just means that the population has voted for it, now it actually needs to be addressed in Parliament.
Essentially we just spent $100m for a poll that we didn't need. Just make it legal and stop treating gay people like second class citizens. But - great news. Equality wins. --- Nice guy?

Yeah, it would definitely be better if it was binding, but it's a good first step. It would have died right away if no had won, and hopefully legalization follows the vote. The people have spoken and I just don't see a reason not to legalize it now.

Their parliament should've already legalized it. Who cares about the populace's thoughts when addressing equality rights for a portion of the population that amounts to maybe 5% at max.

I hope any politician who continues to attempt to shut it down gets massive blowback. Pauline Hanson I'm looking at you.

I thought this had already happened. I remember news from like a month ago about Turnbull voting yes.

I've got to admit I was feeling nervous about this so I'm glad the result is as good as it is
However this has been such a massive waste of money. Even under budget I think it's going to cost like 100 million. And I live in rural NSW, I've seen it bring out the worst in many people here --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

But it's non-binding. True, but at least they have no excuse now, this was their last gasp to take the decision out of their hands and pass off blame-if they're not going to take the public's opinion then it's going to end up in a cat5 shitstorm --- Mod me?
