(repeated from previous thread)
Live Election Coverage in Windows Media Player

Nine: mms://news.netshow.ninemsn.com.au/9MSNLive
(stream seems to crap out after ten minutes or so)

ABC: http://www.abc.net.au/streaming/election.asx

Has anyone found live streams from Ten or Seven?

Do Australian districts have precincts like they do in the US or Canada? Or are they like the UK?

Yes, but they call them booth results.

Ok, so we'll get results fairly soon then. I know you know this, but for others, we call them "polls" in Canada.

I was about to ask if we had an Australian among us to guide us along, but then I realized we had Al which is even better Smiley

I'm rooting for two hopeless causes tonight:
1) The Coalition somehow, someway, holds on
2) The Democrats keep....something....anything.  F**king Greens.

and maybe one less hopeless:
3) The Coalition picks up those two marginal seats in Perth

ABC website has the astute analysis that 150 seats are in doubt.

Of course, all seats are presently "in doubt" no results are in yet... that should happen in about 15 mins.


Also we'll get dribs and drabs. No solid numbers until about 7:30-8pm EST.

I know, I know.

Callare is a non-issue. It was held by a very popular local independent, who retired due to ill health and passed away. This seat was held by the Nationals before, and will be held by them after tonight.

htmldon-the first is certainly possible. WA might even give an extra seat ot two the the government-if the ALP isn't ahead by 16 before WA, it won't win government. That said, SA is looking very good for the opposition. It ought to be close, imho.


First results are in, mainly from Page. Nationals have 41% of the vote so far Wink

There's no ticker because there are no results yet.

Yes there are. In Canada, if a poll comes in with 1 vote in it, it shows up in the ticker!

So will they talk about the Senate at all, or is it only the House that people care about?
