I spoke to two elders on Worimi Country in Forster NSW, where I grew up. They both said they were voting no.

She has spent her life becoming an expert in the constitution, the founding document of this country, the same document that has been used across generations as a form of oppression of her own people. Megan is a lore and law woman.
