Just came across this. Is it having much impact on election prospects?

Climate may be playing out at an individual seat level, most of the Teal independants have Climate in their top 3 focus, but between Lab and Lib it's barely warranted a mention.
I'd say SloMo is winning the choice of battleground, being the Economy. Where Ever Albo goes to a different battleground, SloMo seems to successfully drag him back to the economy.

Doesn't mean he's necessarily winning the battle, but it's being fought on his choice of field.

Is Haines really a chance to back the LNP for government? I’ve never seen anything but attacks on them?

She has said that she'll negotiate first with whichever major party wins more seats, for whatever that's worth.

I call the election a Labor win but they will need to run a minority government with the help of the independents. Congrats to them.

It’s annoying the graphic down the bottom on 7 just has ALP and LNP, a others column would be helpful given they’ll probably make a fair few seats at this rate!

Well, that's a surprise, though possibly not to you locals.

Is it more a cyclical shift or was the ALP less on the nose than the Glibs? Or is it purely the fact that winning independents are more likely to be ALP-aligned ?

Any interesting policy implications?

Scotty is conceding. Good on him - at least our country hasn’t plunged to the anti-democratic depths of the US.

Anti LNP sentiment but ALP has also lost 2% of primary vote.

But getting a 4th term was always unlikely, the fact the ALP haven’t won comfortably says a lot about how they aren’t seen in a very strong light either.

But with so many fake independents, for once in a hung parliament the Greens won’t have much power, despite picking up seats.
