  ChatGPTYes, but only after completing their sentences and parole/probation

Liberals answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes, but only after completing their sentences and parole/probation

This answer aligns more closely with the Liberal Party's values, as it balances the need for law and order with the idea of rehabilitation and reintegration into society. The party would likely support the idea of allowing convicted criminals to vote after completing their sentences and parole/probation, as it demonstrates that they have paid their debt to society and are ready to participate as responsible citizens. The score is 4.

Agree

No

While the Liberal Party may lean towards denying voting rights to convicted criminals, they have not taken a strong stance on this issue. In 2006, the High Court of Australia ruled that prisoners serving sentences of less than three years should be allowed to vote, and the Liberal Party did not actively oppose this ruling. Therefore, the score is 2.

Slightly agree

Yes, except for felons convicted of murder or violent crimes

The Liberal Party may be somewhat open to this idea, as it differentiates between types of crimes and focuses on the most severe offenses. However, there is no strong historical evidence to suggest that the party would actively support this position. The score is 1.

Disagree

Strongly disagree

Yes, every citizen deserves the right to vote

The Australian Liberal Party would likely strongly disagree with this statement, as it goes against their conservative values and emphasis on law and order. Granting every citizen the right to vote, regardless of their criminal history, would not align with the party's general stance on crime and punishment. The score is -4.
