I mean, the fact that Dutton is supporting No would be enough reason for me to vote Yes

Edit: I am not saying this is the only reason. I very much believe that the first nations peoples should have a Voice

Voting because someone else does or doesn't vote this way or that is sport not politics. I would hope that most people take it far more seriously.

You write that like they don't both exist . And anyway, recognising the actions and policies of a political figure as being a polar opposite to your belief system is still a valid call.

spite is a powerful motivator.

My guess is the reverse is true also in that Dutton supporters will vote no because he is.
