Why then do political parties need to be able to spend $90 million per campaign, as well as the individual 800k candidate spends?
Must be something wrong with their campaigning 🤔

Don Farrell: we’ve kept the amount of money you can spend on a single electorate at $800,000 if you can’t get your message out to the Australian people with a spend of $800,000 then there’s something wrong with your campaigning

And that's in 2007 $. Comes in at $3b+ today.
They could easily set up a wiki to allow all candidates to enter their policies and allow voter questions with a comment section. Media would have to add value, or be irrelevant.
This would be much more efficient and equitable, and encourage honest policy.
