Amazing. Who’d a thunk?

Dictator Dan is democratically elected with an increased majority.

The two upper house Liberal Democrats who only got into the Legislative Council in 2018 despite having 3.5 votes between them due to the so called preference whisperer have not been re-elected. These scumbags along with the other crazy ex liberal Bernie Finn supported the extreme fringe and violent anti vaxxers part of which were neo Nazis.

We know how out of touch the Murdoch media are (funny as they invariably referred to elites to stigmatise, demonise and try to show how out of touch those on the so called left were - for want of a label). With declining sales may this mark the death knell of the Murdoch Press who are increasingly shrill and irrelevant.

The Liberal Party has a lot of soul searching to do and like the ALP need to check their candidates better. They endorsed some pretty crazy nutters.

As noted earlier the thrice elected Premier of Victoria, the Right Honourable Daniel Andrews could become the fourth if not the fifth re-elected Premier so strong the lead of the ALP.

However, if a week is a long time in football, it’s even longer in Politics.

Biggest swings on a TPP basis:

Labor

1. South Barwon = 6.8%
2. Euroa = 5.4%
3. Bayswater = 4.8%
4. Geelong = 4.4%
5. Ringwood = 4.3%
6. Ashwood = 4.2%
7. Glen Waverley = 4.2%
8. Box Hill = 4.1%
9. Wendouree = 2.4%
10. Rowville = 1.8%

Labor won all those seats except for Euroa and Rowville.

Coalition

1. Greenvale = 15.1%
2. Mill Park = 13.5%
3. St Albans = 12.4%
4. Shepparton = 12.1%
5. Thomastown = 11.4%
6. Kororoit = 11.1%
7. Yan Yean = 11.1%
8. Broadmeadows = 9.8%
9. Sydenham = 9.0%
10. Morwell = 8.4%

Coalition lost all those seats except for Shepparton and Morwell.

Yes. There’s a few marginal seats for 2026 but many of those are actually marginal for the ALP to defend against the Greens, rather than the LNP. This was the best NP result for about 70 or 80 years, so the Libs are obviously the problem. Perhaps with Pesutto in charge they might stop pandering to the neo-Nazis and culture warriors and revert to being something approaching a bona fide political party over the next 4 years. Time will tell.

It's definitely a flawed system, but apart from Finn and Somyuek, it also sometimes throws up a positive.

One suspects that the decriminalisation of Marijuana will be a big feature of the next 4 years. Hopefully other drugs too. The context being the Legalise Marijuana Party in the upper house along with the Greens.

Mullumbimby Madness in Melbourne.
Lebanese Red in Labor.

First Reasonable thing the leader of the Reason Party has done in 8 years.

Good Riddance.

So looks like Dan has 19 guaranteed votes in the LC that won’t require any negotiations. Guess it depends if the druggies are Greens wannabes.

I would have thought voluntary assisted dieing laws and stopping rabid crazies screaming at women trying to have legal abortions were pretty important reforms. What is it you've achieved again?

Oh stop it you’re being rational.

Another disappointment is that Limbrick the p*ick might get back into the LC after all because of the vagaries of the complex system of preferences in the upper house. He gave socour to the anti vaxxer crazies including neo Nazis, Scumbag that he is.

Be very very careful what you wish for there. Ice manufacturers should be killed slowly and painfully.
