Comment on Where will my vote go?

Is there any resource out there that can show me where the preferences get fed to, so I can make an informed choice.
You choose your own preferences.
On the House of Representative ballot, this has always been the case.
On the Senate ballot it used to be the case that if you voted ‘above the line’, you could only vote ‘1’, and nothing more, and the parties decided the preference flow. That is not the case anymore. Now we have partially-optional preferencing ‘above the line’, numbering at least 6, or all the boxes above the line if you choose. (You can also number below the line if you want to pick your own ordering of the candidates for each party/group.)
