That Guardian #analysis^tm was premature. Labor swings are declining in the Northern Sydney electorates as the Liberal favouring postal votes come in and theres still a significant chunk of votes left to be counted (15-20%).

You aren't going to see Newcastle, Wollongong and Western Sydney voting Liberal any time soon, and you aren't going to see the Northern Beaches, North Shore and Upper Eastern Suburbs voting Labor/Greens anytime soon. Bradfield and Mackellar swinging slightly to Labor doesn't justify this dumb hype over "muh suburb and WWC trends^tm

I should also point out that these independents in Wentworth and Warringah aren't ideologically like Labor or the Greens. The competition in these electorates are essentially Liberal vs. Liberal-lite. So no you won't see Vaucluse Greenies for a long time to come.
