The election's been on all day, the count starts at 5pm.
Well not actually, the count starts at 6pm but the coverage is from 5pm.
This is for those who do not live in Australia, really.

I live in Australia but I don't watch TV.
As if watch Channel 9. Having Laurie Oakes on is bound to make your head explode.
ABC24 is much better.

Labor has it in the bag by the way.
Fat chance having an Independent or the Greens winning over here, our mainstream voters always vote for the person who saves the most useless environmental bullshit, or stops the most immigration boats. (We lost a desalination plant because of fucking Cod. FUCKING COD.)
I swear, there's so much "THEM'S TOOK OUR JURBZ" attitude around here it's bullshit.
Labor, fuck the coalition.

Got a political party tonight, the mood will probably be killed if abbot wins. Oh well :v:

Greens have a very good chance at gaining more power in the government than ever before. Many people really dislike the policies and heads of both Labor and Liberal.
Greens only chance of a seat in the HoR is in Melbourne, which they have in the bag.
They could hold the Balance of Power in the Senate too, not good.
Better the Greens than Labor/Liberal.
Labor/Liberal are like the two little retarded redhead cousins that fight all the time, while the Greens is the guy across the street yelling at them to shut the fuck up so he can get back to work fixing stuff around the house.
And the Australian Sex Party are the couple in the house next door doing their thing.
Greens won't be able to fix shit so that's a silly assumption.
So who's going to be fighting a Kangaroo?
Tf2 jokes lolololol
Probably the Senators that didn't get in.
The Holy Ground is Liberal controlled once again!
I forgot all about it and missed it. :v:
It's still on now

Watch it there instead.
Great thing how the Greens have the Melbourne seat and all, but [b]FUCK[/b]
They are getting screwed over by the votes. I guess mainstream Australians really are Ignorant/Conservatist/Don'tgiveafuck.

Or don't want all the economically ruining policies that the greens don't plaster all over the news?
[QUOTE=Superwafflez;24234792]Or don't want all the economically ruining policies that the greens don't plaster all over the news?[/QUOTE]
Really, the Australian economy is nigh impossible to ruin, since we export/import all our shit from Asia/US. We never really die until Asia dies.
Besides, we have enough Uranium down here to blow up the middle of Europe.
[QUOTE=DireAvenger;24234867]Could you reword that? The start of that sentence is very confusing. :confused:[/QUOTE]
Sorry I use complicated English a lot. :v:
I was basically saying that people don't vote for the Greens because they are more concerned about the economic policies of the parties, and the Greens are pretty poor in that area, so they don't publicise those policies as much as say, their policies on the environment and other issues.

Nobody's game enough to sell it, least the Greens. :v:
My only Qualm with the greens is nuclear power.
If they would realise that the only current problem is waste (Which we have a gigantic ass desert for), then we'd have a better power generation system as well.
Fuuck, I wish politics worked more in a way of ticking boxes of what I do and don't want in a government, forcing the next government to enact the majority vote of those policies.
Like a really big democracy, sort of.
Nuclear power takes in very little fuel so it outputs very little fuel. There aren't barrels of it lying around, there's less than a truckload every 10 years.

And yet everyone takes their shit from the Simpsons. (Known as the biggest assortment of environmentalist comic artists in the united states)

You know what the great thing about politics is? It's the choice you are allowed to make. The choice between Idiot No. 1, and Idiot No. 2.

The candidates are John Jackson and Jack Johnson.

We have enough Uranium to blow up ALL OF EUROPE, while still having enough for ten godzillas.

I remember a phrase, it went like "A man smart enough to do this job, is smart enough not to want it."
applicable.
