In Australia you have to vote, which can make elections totally unpredictable, like our election last year which yielded a hung parliament. If you're ever so inclined to read about Australian politics you'll quickly understand that a balance of power coming down to three independent country seats and a Greens member (Very very VERY left wing party) was kinda of big deal.
Yeah, but how often does the green rep win? I'm guessing about as often as ours (never).
