Haven't seen another post for election updates yet, so creating this. Share your bets on how many times Anthony Green is going to have a screen malfunction.

Pre-poll votes have become LNP copium.

9 news just officially called it for Labor

[–] boolean_sledgehammer@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Congrats on taking care of your garbage.

I feel a bit sorry for the LNP guy on the ABC panel.

I think they should allow a tag team, and switch in somebody fresh

All these candidates in black like they're attending a funeral....

If the ex-ABC presenter in Franklin wins the seat off the ALP candidate, will the LNP become pro ABC?

[–] PetulantBandicoot@aussie.zone 5 points 3 months ago

ABC no longer the hate media, you heard it here first.

[–] Nolvamia@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Mmmm. Roasted potato.

Christopher Pyne saying this might be worst result since party creation with less than a third of all seats.

[–] Sixtyforce@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 months ago

Tasmania went all liberal last time due to pokies or something right? Seems like things are swinging back now in a big way.

PollBludger calling Dickson for Labor.

As someone watching from the other side of the world - is this another election victory that can be chalked up to Trump?

[–] GiovanniBruzzolini@aussie.zone 6 points 3 months ago

I think Trump was a contribution. The conservative opposition were leading the polls but lost their mojo in the last couple of months

[–] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 months ago

Our progressive party probably would have creaked through to a minority victory but this is a historic victory and we have brutalised the conservatives, and that's due to Trump.

Screen still down! Drink!

[–] No1@aussie.zone 4 points 3 months ago

I like that they are showing appropriate respect talking about Peter Dutton picking up a seat.

He may not even hold his own.
