They even got some coverage on the news at the last election. Very amusing.

Sadly the Australian Sex Party was a REAL contender as the other two major parties had no real policies and the Sex party did.

They got 2% of the national senate vote at the last federal election. That is just below that of Family First (a Pentecostal Party) at 2.1% and well ahead of both the Christian (Fundamentalist) Democratic and Democratic (Catholic) Labor Parties at 1% each.

Not a bad showing for a political party running for elections for the first time at a national level, given the amount of exposure they have had I can see the Sex Party easily doubling that vote at the next election.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyndon_H._LaRouche

Quote:Lyndon Hermyle LaRouche, Jr. (born September 8, 1922), also known as Lyn Marcus, is an American political activist and founder of the LaRouche movement. He has written on economic, scientific, and political topics, as well as on history, philosophy, and psychoanalysis. Journalists and government officials in China, Italy and Russia have credited LaRouche with forecasting that unrestricted financial speculation would cause the late-2000s financial crisis.[1]

LaRouche was a presidential candidate eight times between 1976 to 2004, running once for his own U.S. Labor Party and campaigning seven times for the Democratic Party nomination. He was sentenced to 15 years' imprisonment in 1988 for conspiracy to commit mail fraud and tax code violations, and was released in 1994 on parole.

I guess he set up shop in Australia.
