That's exactly the sort of small business entrepreneur that the Libs should be supporting.

yeah, that is way too far left for spenno

[Birds in Hell]

Yeah, I feel I should be at least as right-wing and conservative as the LNP, however I blame the framing and weighting of the questions.

I placed on the cross section between ALP and GRN.

Meet you guys here this time tomorrow to celebrate a thumping Coalition victory!

Guys?...guys?...

[WtOB?]

do you sometimes have wet dreams about being a baby boomer?

[Birds in Hell]

What an awful, awful thought.

[LetMeSleep]

No sangas, no lamingtons, nothing. Just a huge spreadsheet of tosspots.

I live in a hugely safe Labor seat. How about you guys? Anything close to a swing or safe seats all round?

[Birds in Hell]

I'm back in Port Adelaide this election (having previously lived here from 1982-2004) which has never not been held by the ALP and I don't expect that will change despite the massive swing to NXT.

I'd previously been living in Mayo for the last eight years, which has never not been a Liberal seat (first Alexander Downer then Jamie Briggs), but it looks as though that may fall to NXT tonight which is an awful shame.

Minority Coalition government on its way.

Bolt is such a dickhead.

Minority Coalition government on its way.

Huge swing towards the uncharismatic Shorten. Imagine if the ALP had a likeable leader!

This is incoherent, 'dude.

We'll see how things shape up tomorrow. A slim Coalition majority isn't out of the question yet.

I'm still astonished by the dishonest and unethical scare campaign run by the ALP over Medicare.

I'm not surprised it was successful but it reflects so poorly on the party (and the media who allowed them to run with it), an appalling lack of any principle other than a desire to gain power for its own sake.
