Also worth thinking about...Both major parties kicked in the head with a significant loss of votes - but the problem is that a Labor minority government (most likely outcome at this point) will be unworkable and we'll be back to the polls before you know it. The Greens are radical socialists and their demands can't be met by any reasonable government - we will not have a stable government if that happens.

Labor/Liberal coalition isn't out of the question at some point in the future!

So it's more or less a hung Parliament, as I predicted.Also worth thinking about...Both major parties kicked in the head with a significant loss of votes - but the problem is that a Labor minority government (most likely outcome at this point) will be unworkable and we'll be back to the polls before you know it.

Yes, very much looking like a hung parliament. As for the Senate - grab your popcorn....
We'll be back at the polls by late-2023 imo.

21:16, Antony Green has declared Morrison cannot form any kind of government.
Looking more like a Labor government with Green support...an excellent alternative to a straight out Labor win. WA seats still too early to call...but looking strong for Labor. picking up four
I'm popping the champagne here for Albo.
I'm genuinely sad that Liberal Trent Zimmerman in North Sydney has lost his seat, Frydenberg looking very much in danger.
Mike.

Yes, very much looking like a hung parliament. As for the Senate - grab your popcorn....Definitely no minority government for the LNP - Labor may govern in their own right. Hard to know as postals and absentees often favor the LNP.

Very difficult to see a big-spending Labor government doing well going into the headwinds of a high inflation environment.

Seats in WA are likely to flow to the ALP, meaning Albo will be able to govern in his own right!

Just saw TV in ALP HQ and more importantly what the crowd was drinking.
ALP provide imported beer to their support base?
So can we throw out their promise of job creation!

Barrie Cassidy noted that the ALP got just 31% of primary vote so far.
Dai La looks to have won Fowler.

The greens do have policies for rail freight. Probably better than the ALP Victoria policies.

The preferred local candidate, Tu Le was particularly popular and in my view would easily won, yet she was pushed aside for KK.Barrie Cassidy noted that the ALP got just 31% of primary vote so far.Kristina Keneally is damaged goods, they parachuted her in from over on the North Shore, the locals of Fowler more or less gave her a 2 fingered salute.

KK will likely end up with a senate position, somehow.
