"It is my impression that those applicants and their supporters in this application and the others that I dealt with, went away with a unanimous acceptance of the integrity, accuracy and efficiency of the system undertaken and administered by Mr Ofsoske and his team. In fact, the Electoral Officer and his staff were praised by all those involved and as the supervising Judge, I join in that chorus of approval."
