CANBERRA, March 20 (Xinhua) -- Australians in some of the nation's most conservative electorates have thrown their support behind the same same-sex marriage movement, the results of a poll showed on Monday.
ReachTel polled Australians living in 12 conservative seats, including Treasurer Scott Morrison's seat of Cook, Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce's seat of New England and Trade Minister Steve Ciobo's electorate of Moncrieff, finding that a majority of voters in all 12 of the electorates polled supported same-sex marriage.
A majority of voters also said it was "very important" that the issue will be resolved in Parliament in 2017.
Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce is against legalizing same-sex marriage in Australia, but 50.5 percent of voters in his seat are for allowing same-sex couples to marry. On the other hand, 39 percent opposed.
More than 56 percent of people in Treasurer Scott Morrison's seat would like to see same-sex couples afforded the same rights as other Australians, while 61.2 percent of those in the safe Liberal seat of Moncrieff in Queensland said they support same-sex marriage. Crucially, that seat's representative, Trade Minister Steve Ciobo, is also in favor of marriage equality.
The poll was commissioned by Australians for Equality and asked the opinion of 700 people in each electorate. The movement's director, Tiernan Brady said the results reflected "what we are seeing in town hall meetings all around Australia."
"This won't go away, this doesn't need to be a political football, a clear majority of voters in every party want this," Brady told Fairfax Media on Monday.
There is currently a push within government to allow a free vote on the issue before the federal budget is handed down in May, however the prime minister has said a plebiscite, or non-binding public vote, would still be going ahead later in the year.

MINDFUL EATING is not a diet. It’s a conscious way of eating and enjoying food for both good health and pleasure. It uses our internal cues for hunger, appetite, and satiety to guide us in eating. When we slow down and pay attention to how we eat, what we eat Kyle Rudolph Youth Jersey , and how we feel, we’re more likely to make better decisions that nourish our bodies.
Here are a few steps you can take to practice mindful eating.
Step 1 – Give yourself permission to eat what you want.聽If you don’t, you may find yourself overeating because you don’t want to feel deprived. Restricting yourself from certain foods may also keep you craving them whether you’re hungry or not.
Step 2 – Focus while you eat.聽Instead of unconsciously shoveling food into your mouth at mealtimes or as you go about the day, STOP to enjoy each bite. Whenever you eat Linval Joseph Youth Jersey , take a moment to sit down and JUST EAT; don’t do anything else. Make it an event.
Step 3 – Savor the flavor.聽Engage your sense of smell and taste to fully enjoy your food. Appreciate the delicious smell before you take a bite. Then as you bite into your sandwich, broccoli, candy, or whatever Harrison Smith Youth Jersey , notice the texture – is it soft or hard, chewy or crunchy? Take your time and let it sit in your mouth for a few seconds before you start to chew. Move it around to let all your taste buds get in on the action.
Step 4 – Reflect for a moment.聽Once you finish, take some time to think about the experience. Was it as good as you imagined it would be? Did you really (really) love it? Do you feel satisfied and happy or guilty and worried about the calories? The latter likely means that you weren’t able to fully enjoy your food and you may be stuck in “diet mentality” thinking. With time and practice, you can move beyond this.
Step 5 – Decide what’s next.聽Do you want more candy? If so Kirk Cousins Youth Jersey , repeat steps 1 – 4.
