TIL australia is such a poor and backwards country that the "democracy sausages" they use to bribe people to vote, are not even given to them in buns, they put it in a regular slice of bread insteadhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_sausage#til #todayilearnedhttps://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/16utsv2/til_australia_is_such_a_poor_and_backwards/

@todayilearned @jpm they’re not given. Polling places are generally churches and schools. The hosts generally hold a jumble sale, baking stall and sausage stand on Election Day (always Saturday). A sausage in bread (onions optional) is a neighborly way to solicit two dollars per visitor toward the Remove-The-Crocodiles-From-The-School-Pool fund (or Exorcise-The-Bunyip-From-The-Church-Organ fund). Your local supermarket can easily supply two thousand slices of bread but not two thousand rolls. Websites exist to help you avoid any tragic polling places that are not selling sausages or baked goods.

@todayilearned Let me know what polling station gives the democracy sausages for free as a bribe. I bet it’s a very busy one!

@todayilearned the trick is to eat two, if it came with a nasty hot dog bun you would fill up on bread.

@todayilearned You have no idea what you’re talking about. Voting in Australia is compulsory. If you don’t vote you will be fined.

@todayilearned Voting is fucken compulsory. The sausage isn't a bribe.And a sausage in bread is a delicacy incomparable to whatever nonsense your bun espouses.But yes, Australia is pretty backward.
