Australia 2022 Election

[KaiserDave]

Looks like a great triumph for Labor! Congrats to our Aussie posters who wanted this outcome, I know that I did!

Morrison deserved to lose because he was a sleazy, right wing politician with a regressive economic and environmental agenda. And he lost. Good-bye. Time for a serious, principled, competent left-wing government that can get concrete policy wins and be ready to dispatch Dutton or some other far-right ghoul in 2025.

Scott Morrison did precisely one good thing in his tenure, deporting Novak Djokovic.

Can one of our ALP voting Aussies tell us how this result compares to their expectations?

Secondly, are we looking at an ALP majority?

I think the answer is probably, but postals skew Coalition enough that if enough goes wrong they may fall just short. Right now I think we're looking at a high 70's result - so not far off my predictions.

As for my expectations, probably similar when taken nationwide, but I admit that the verocity of the WA swing and the Teal movement surprised me.

Of course I didn't give my first preference to the ALP this election so.....

I should have just said "left of center." This response is great. Do you think ALP could have feasibly done better?
