Maranoa is David Littleproud's seat. Looking at Antony's detailed analysis (link in his post below), David may indeed have "LittleToBeProudOf" next election & a lot of time on his hands. #Auspol #AustraliaVotes

Yes, it would look like Australia. One of the few countries with mandatory voting. It works well with a very small percentage of spoiled ballots or people paying a fine for not voting. I like it. At least the politicians we get reflect what the community wants at the time.
#AustraliaVotes

Ridiculous of #DonQuixotic to asserts that other countries don't use mail-in ballots.
#AusPol #AustraliaVotes use them.
"Postal votes" are important here. They're not questioned because we have reliable, permanent AEC and State equivalent Electoral Commission established procedures.

The last time an Australian PM didn’t have to rely on preferences to win a majority of seats was Howard in 2004.
Arguments against preferential (ranked) voting are nonsense.
Thanks to William Bowe for the analysis.

Putting myself through the pain of watching the Channel 7 election coverage. Clive Palmer treated like an election genius, Jane Hume and Warren Mundine allowed to constantly suggest that Labor won due to "Albanese's lying." Shorten having a ball.

"It's going to get worse before it gets worse," Tony Barry on the #LNP - ABC coverage of the 2022 election.

"It's like [Dutton] is chasing a bucket of right wing votes that don't exist." Dee Madigan re Dutton's strategy post the 2022 election.

How true.

#auspol #australiavotes

I so want Zoe Daniel to win. Seeing that smarmy smile wiped off Tim Wilson's face would make my day. It's so close. #goldstein #AustraliaVotes

Goldstein vote count showing Tim Wilson leading by 401 votes.

According to the #ABC Tim Wilson is now only leading Zoe Daniel by 401 votes with 92.2% of the vote counted. It's still showing as a Coalition gain, though.

So Clive Palmer has no seats and lost his HC case 7-0 😆
Thanks Kevin.
May I say, with Antony Green retired, William Bowe and yourself do a great job explaining our electoral system.

#Ryan is currently listed as in doubt as it remains unclear whether the #Greens or #Labor candidates will finish 2nd. It is clear the #LNP cannot win.

'Children at the grown-ups' table': Liberal insiders reveal a catastrophic campaign The writing was on the wall for Peter Dutton long before Anthony Albanese fired the starter's gun on the election race that would see the Coalition decimated.

The #ABC that praised every breath #PeterDutton took, started every second story "Peter Dutton said" and ignored every govt achievement, knew all along that Dutton was a loser.

Scott Morrison & Peter Dutton.

Hi, these are the last two Liberal Party leaders. One was corrupt, lazy and incompetent. The other tried to surf into power on a wave of resentment, grievance and hostility to indigenous people while having no real policies.

Have a nice day.

#auspol #scottmorrison #peterdutton #australiavotes

Wow!

Two leaders have now officially lost their own seats in the 2025 Australian Federal Election.

Adam Bandt confirmed to have lost Melbourne, joining Peter Dutton on the "dumped" bench!!

I don't think anyone predicted this!!

Antisemitism claims break out in dying days of race for Goldstein Jewish leaders say teal MP Zoe Daniel has a strong record standing up to antisemitism after the circulation of a letter claiming her campaign is antisemitic.

www.afr.com/politics/ant... Who was behind the letter referred to in this article? Wilson making sly comments on social media that 'at least One Nation aren't antisemitic' implying that Daniel is. #auspol #AustraliaVotes
