The White Australia policy was the Policy of the Government of the time - it was not imposed through a vote.
Like so much Government policy it was not supported by many of the voting public at that time. Australia already had a large Chinese population (post the Gold Rush of the 1850's) by the time this poicy was in effect and they would not be expected to have supported this policy
