For a vote in Australia to be valid, it has to number every box in order. If you just write a '1' in the box of your favourite candidate, your vote will not count.
Whoa really? Where I live there have been occasional rumblings about switching to preference voting, and I've mostly been agnostic about it. But this part seems like a negative, to me. If it's clear who someone meant to vote for, the vote should count.
I'm curious what the reasoning is here? Is this specific to Australia? Something to do with mandatory voting?
So 'roll hard right and die'?

The new presidential election is going to be held in June.
November 5th, actually. The last of the presidential primaries are in June.
