North played in a prelim, a couple of years later traded out a bunch of experience, and then had a few years of pain. AFL gave them a very nice assistance package. So I can see why Weagles are asking for something similar. Don't think they'll get it this year, unless Harley goes.

Under "Amoco" - might want to consider saying "petrol (gas) stations" for our American friends.

At least 1916 ALP/Greens voters preferenced Wilson.

Likely ALP/Greens preferences would be closer to 2500 (will find this out at some point). More than 10% of ALP/Greens voters for some reason figured Wilson would be a better representative than Zoe Daniel.

Hard to fathom.

AEC just updated - Wilson by 128, but 86 envelopes still to process.

Or LNP could form coalition with either Libs or Nats to become the opposition. Imagine that - LNP and Nats form opposition and the Libs sit on the sidelines!

Or LNP could split, with some going to Libs, some to Nats, and then, I got no idea how it ends up.

As it stands:

Liberal 18 seats
Liberal National (QLD) 16 seats
National 9 seats
CLP (NT) 0 seats

If the coalition completely breaks, then Libs become the opposition with 18 members - everyone gets a portfolio!!

Around 3000 envelopes haven't been returned (again according to AEC), and today is last day for them to be received. Best hope is that a big chunk of that 3000 get delivered to AEC in the remaining few hours.

The variance in the Caulfield south booth voting is wild. 2 booths heavily favour Zoe, the other two just as heavy in favour of Timmy. Elsternwick booths favour Zoe, though there has been a swing away in one booth.

Yep, was looking at this, which I can only assume is the best indication of what votes are left. But would be very happy if there's more. I'm in Goldstein, and Libs have spent a fortune on getting Wilson re-elected, would be hilarious if it all backfires.
