Voting rights of Australian Aborigines : ウィキペディア英語版 | Voting rights of Australian Aborigines
The voting rights of Aboriginal Australians became an issue from the mid-19th century, when responsible government was being granted to Britain's Australian colonies, and suffrage qualifications were being debated. The resolution of universal rights progressed into the mid twentieth century. Aboriginal Australians have had full voting rights at all levels of government in Australia since the 1960s. Aboriginal Australians had first begun to acquire voting rights along with other adults living in the Australian colonies from the late-19th century.〔(Australian Suffragettes )〕 Other than in Queensland and Western Australia, Aboriginal men were not excluded from voting alongside their non-indigenous counterparts in the Australian colonies and in South Australia, Aboriginal women also acquired the vote from 1895 onward. Following Australian Federation in 1901 however, the Commonwealth Franchise Act 1902 restricted Aboriginal voting rights in federal elections. For a time Aborigines could vote in some states and not in others, though from 1949, Aborigines could vote if they were or had been servicemen. In 1962, the Menzies Government (1949-1966) amended the ''Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918'' to enable all Aboriginal Australians to enroll to vote in Australian federal elections. In 1965, Queensland became the last state to remove restrictions on Aborigines voting in state elections. By 1967 Aborigines had equal rights in all states and territories. == Colonial aboriginal franchise ==
