The House of Reps vs The Senate | Politics Explained

What's the difference between the lower house and upper house (well, other than the green and red)? ►► How do your views compare to the parties’ policies? Find out with Vote Compass: https://votecompass.abc.net.au In Australia we have a bicameral system — the Senate and the House of Representatives. Members of the House represent a geographic area — known as electorates — which match up with population spread. The Senate, however, represents states or territories. The number of Senators is spread equally across the country, giving less populated states an edge. There are also a lot of crossbench and minor party senators (such as the Greens and One Nation) because of the Senate's voting system, known as proportional representation, which means people who receive very few primary votes can still be elected based on preferences.
