As citizens of SouthAustralia, "qualified" residents in the Territory were entitled to the vote, although in 1882 legislation passed which excluded both men and women of Asian descent from enrolling to vote.
Finally, when SouthAustralia became a state of the Commonwealth, Territorians' political rights were extended to a vote in both federal houses of parliament and in the right to vote in referendums.
The pay-off for SouthAustralia was a commitment by the Commonwealth to continue with the building of the railway to Darwin.
