oh if hansen young loses her seat, i will truly be cracking out the champagne

so will everyone in SA. she could lose to Mr X's sidekick.

Please make it so! Also Faehrmann in NSW. Green female politicians, like Milne, Hanson-Young, Faehrmann and Bandt have to be the most irritating politicians.

Looking at the graphics and the oz has already given Cate a senate seat.

People decided their vote weeks/months/years ago

Nothing said here or throughout the campaigns will change their minds

It is correct that the vast majority of voters are "permanently fixed", in their voting intentions and that has been the case for some time.

However, there are some 10-20% of voters who do change their mind & do it regularly, right up to voting day AND IT IS LIKELY THAT % OF SWINGING VOTERS IS GATHERING MOMENTUM!

Likely make up according to the Australian website

Greens 10

Labor 27

Libs and Nats 33

Others 2
Xenophon
DLP

In doubt

1 seat in SA ~ 3 way between Xenophon, Libs, and Greens

1 seat in Qld ~ 3 way between
Katter, Palmer and Greens

1 in NSW ~ 2 way between
1 Nation and Libs

A.C.T ~ 2 way between
Libs and Greens.

Unlikely Abbott will get control so to be prepared, to me the most likely path for Abbott would to call a DD at the first opportunity before people go off the coalition.

Agree?

Well Woody, we won't know the final outcome for a couple of days, BUT I voted today (because I won't be in my electorate on Saturday) AND I VOTED GREENS, NOT BECAUSE I LOVE OR EVEN AGREE WITH THE GREENS, BUT BECAUSE I AM LOOKING AT THE BALANCE ACT, BETWEEN THE LIKELY OUTCOME IN THE "LOWER HOUSE" AND FUTURE ECONOMIC & POLITICAL OUTCOMES AND I WOULD SUGGEST THAT THE LIBS MAY RECONSIDER A DD, BECAUSE IT MAY NOT BE IN THEIR INTERESTS!

Maybe you should have all stopped and read the Australian link. They actually say the exact opposite of green_weirdo.

current polling suggests that the Greens will LOSE their balance of power. So rather than win an additional seat they are likely to lose at least one and possibly two.

But stay tuned for tomorrow when Green_liar starts a thread titled "Abbott to lose the election' and 'Greens to hold balance of power in lower hous'

It will be almost as entertaining as the telecast except the telecast will be factual.

The linked Oz article linked to a graphic that completely contradicted what they were trying to spin. Current polling does not say that Greens will lose the BOP, thats just Antony Green's speculation - which the Oz naturally emphasise. But if the Oz was so certain that the Greens would lose the BOP, why do they link a graphic entitled "The likely makeup of the upper house..." that has Greens gaining a seat, and still holding the BOP?

No, not neutral, BUT DEFINITELY NOT PRO LABOR OR PRO LIBERAL!

Both major party's have NFI what is about to happen & frankly neither really gives a rats ass, PARTICULARLY ABOUT US!!

MY DECISION, ON WHO TO VOTE FOR, WAS PURELY ABOUT RISK MITIGATION, FUTURE RISK, END OF STORY!!!
