You're right of course. Which PM is appointed is obviously a function of who is elected as your representative.
However, the way the system is supposed to work is that you select the local representative from the party that has the policies that best align with your own interests.
Voting either ALP or LNP as a proxy for Albo or Dutton based on the vibe might seem like the same thing but it's really not. That's how my mum and dad, (dependent on the age pension from Centrelink) always vote LNP against their own interests - voting based on the vibe rather than looking at policies.
The point I was trying to make to OP is to look at the policies and their local interests rather than the personalities of the people who might be PM.
