@mattblaze As an election nerd you might appreciate this weird fact: In Australia only Australian citizens can enroll and vote but it’s almost impossible for the election management body to definitely establish someone is an Australian citizen because of some weird edge cases where you can be born in Australia to legally permanent resident parents but not gain citizenship yourself. Basically an Australian birth certificate doesn’t definitely prove citizenship, only a citizenship certificate does. The way they get around this is… pretend it isn’t a problem, (because it mostly isn’t).
