The government at the very least should have put funding in place to support Indigenous Australians throughout this campaign. For Royal Commissions there will often be grants awarded to mental health / trauma services in order to support people through telling their stories. I think the same consideration should have taken with this campaign because it has become so predictably vile and unhinged. I imagine it's a lot for Indigenous Australians to have to process, regardless of how they're voting.
