Archive Database News

This Database was archived at the end of 2018 but its components continue to be enhanced and the website modified for ease of access.

A current project is to include brief notes and references for each Senate election result in the Senate National Summaries and to add active links to Glossary entries and online sources.

For example, the notes on the 1949 Senate election, the first held with proportional representation, examine the details and context of the adoption of the electoral system that was to have major consequences for the role of the Senate.
