He dog-talked them! No, No, NO! Down, down down. It worked!Ok I got to admit this is just a tad awks. Albo annoyed the raucous crowd is ruining his speech. He left it too late and now they're all drunk. Ha!
I thought the same when he did that!He dog-talked them! No, No, NO! Down, down down. It worked!



I'm tipping Labor wins 77 seats.
The Aus agrees (although I rarely agree with them):
Antony Green:
On Monday, the Australian Electoral Commission will start to re-throw the seats where they have the wrong preference count.
And probably, by Tuesday or Wednesday, we'll have a much clearer result.
But some seats will take to the very end, in two weeks' time.

It'll be just my luck that Brisbane will probably take the full two weeks!Antony Green:

Just have a peek every day and hope that Labor doesn't pull ahead of Greens. Looks like only 160 votes in it right now?It'll be just my luck that Brisbane will probably take the full two weeks!
- The AEC has supressed the preference count in Brisbane, and based on estimated preference flows, results in the Greens winning on Labor preferences. There is still a chance Labor could reach second place on primary votes which would result in Labor winning on Green preferences.

Even if Labor take Brisbane, the entire election has been a huge wakeup call to both major parties that people want climate action.
(or if you listen to the absurd logic of Sky News, people voted for climate action because they were mad that the Libs weren't more anti-climate action)

By major parties, you mean, "The Libs" because Labor in Government has had an effective climate policy in action which the Libs got rid of. They have also tried to enact an even better climate policy which the Greens blocked.
Labor has snuck ahead now (only by 34 votes though). I'm not sure if postals will favour the Greens much, but we'll have to wait and see.Brisbane on a knife edge. @Consuela you're probably going to have to wait the full two weeks for this.

Postals will probably favour Labor (Do Greens voters know what post is?


Good luck, I hope your candidate makes it.Postals will probably favour Labor (Do Greens voters know what post is?) but I'm hoping to be proved wrong. If the margin between Labor/Greens can stay close to the Animal Party primary their preferences might bump the Greens to second.

If it helps, I am a postal voter, and I did put Greens first (over Tanya Plibersek). Obviously there's not a chance in hell she wouldn't be re-elected but if you want things to change and don't make an effort, they will never change. Greens should receive $2.90 for my first preference at least.
Curiously, Sydney had a pretty high informal vote of 4.2%. Probably people intending to vote for UAP/PHON but are unable to count to seven.

I’m a Labor voter, but even I’ll admit that the climate policy isn’t as transformative as what the Greens would push.By major parties, you mean, "The Libs" because Labor in Government has had an effective climate policy in action which the Libs got rid of. They have also tried to enact an even better climate policy which the Greens blocked.
And Shorten was a bit both ways when it came to Adani last election.
