A few days ago, we saw Canada’s Conservative opposition leader Pierre Poilievre lose an election and his own seat. Can we make that twice in a week?
Current numbers (6.1% counted) have a 5.1% swing to the ALP, resulting in a 6.8% lead for Labor’s Ali France over Liberal leader Peter Dutton.
Second-last update of the night, unless the last one suddenly takes a lot longer. No significant changes, still close on primary/not close on preferences.
EDIT: Actually, I guess we’re done, the tracker updated to show 40 of 40 polling stations reporting without the figures actually budging at all. And we’re out of here.
