#AUSPOL STRAYA ELECTIONS 2K16 - MALCOLM TURNBULL REMAINS PRIME MINISTER. - Polidicks

So is that 'Seats Won' thing on the ABC a predicted vote, or the current vote?

If we go back the greens would get a huge boost. [editline]2nd July 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=FlandersNed;50633377]So is that 'Seats Won' thing on the ABC a predicted vote, or the current vote?[/QUOTE] Predicted

[QUOTE=FlandersNed;50633377]So is that 'Seats Won' thing on the ABC a predicted vote, or the current vote?[/QUOTE] Predicted, but its closer to actual now as more votes have been counted

I don't think any party will form a minority

Liberal wont form a minority government, its against how they are set up.

[QUOTE=Evanstr;50633408]Liberal wont form a minority government, its against how they are set up.[/QUOTE] which means we're going back to the polls

67 - 64 to LNP now. Farout, this is close.

what are the senate predictions?

[QUOTE=Bradyns;50633433]:hypeisnotreal:[/QUOTE] okay that's Queensland but what about the rest of Australia

I'd hate to be the people who have to count the fucking senate voting ballots, especially if someone voted 12+ below the line.

Morrison: large amount of prepolls coming in soon [editline]2nd July 2016[/editline] BATMAN MAY STILL GO TO THE GREENS - ABC

When do the pre-polls roll in.. Considering they account for, what, ~27% of the vote.

Labour room is cheering Shorten like he's Bill Nye the Science Guy.

[QUOTE=Bradyns;50633484]When do the pre-polls roll in.. Considering they account for, what, ~27% of the vote.[/QUOTE] Morrison didnt give a proper time frame but ill imagine they'll be released in the next hour

Not a really empowering speech from Shorten.

I stopped paying attention for about an hour, what's happening? Especially with the labour celebrations on ABC, have they won or something?

[QUOTE=Bradyns;50633505]Not a really empowering speech from Shorten.[/QUOTE] When has he ever given a really empowering speech?

it's shorten, what you expecting, a JFK/Lincoln tier speech

[QUOTE=Araknid;50633508]I stopped paying attention for about an hour, what's happening? Especially with the labour celebrations on ABC, have they won or something?[/QUOTE] Election is now too close to call and a possibility of a hung parliament is becoming more and more...well, possible.

[QUOTE=FlandersNed;50633510]When has he ever given a really empowering speech?[/QUOTE] The 2016 budget response was savage.

[QUOTE=FlandersNed;50633519]a hung parliament .[/QUOTE] Which means what? I'm pretty clueless when it comes to Australian politics

[QUOTE=Araknid;50633527]Which means what? I'm pretty clueless when it comes to Australian politics[/QUOTE] when neither party has a majority and cannot form a minority

[QUOTE=Araknid;50633527]Which means what? I'm pretty clueless when it comes to Australian politics[/QUOTE] If a party cannot form a majority (76 seats) in the lower house (150 seats), then they will have to form a minority government through support of independents and other minor parties. It's a hung parliament until this minority government is formed. If a minority government cannot be formed, then we go back to vote. 2010 is a prime example, given it was the first since 1940.

[QUOTE=Bradyns;50633505]Not a really empowering speech from Shorten.[/QUOTE] it had nothing on rudd's "we didn't get completely annihilated" speech

[QUOTE=Devodiere;50633554]it had nothing on rudd's "we didn't get completely annihilated" speech[/QUOTE] I recall him crying during that speech.

i fucking love abc24 right now, theyre so fucking tired and laughing over nothing

A double disillusion election resulting in a hung parliament. That'd be one for the history books.
