In the Legislative Council, it looks like NSW will mimic Victoria: the Greens and Legalise Cannabis (!) will hold the balance of power.

With 11 votes needed to pass legislation, it’s looking like:
Labor 8
Coalition 7
Greens 2
Legalise Cannabis 1
Liberal Democrats 1
Shooters & Fishers 1
One Nation 1
