The AEC allows for a candidate to request a recount if “it’s particularly close.” It doesn’t specify a number. Is a margin of 131 after 126,000 are counted “particularly close?” That’s the question.

@barriecassidy Unless Daniel has a good reason (whatever that might be) to request a recount it's not going to happen ....

Daniel now trails Wilson by 131 votes. There is an automatic recount if the difference is less than 100. But a candidate can still request a recount if “it’s particularly close.” In 2022 a candidate in Gilmore was refused a recount. But the margin was 373.

Littleproud told 7.30 net zero emissions played no part in the split. And why should it, he asked, when the Nationals position as it stands is to support net zero? Just threw that in just in case you’re confused by the whole thing.

Yes curtin got 58% in 1943. This is labor’s best result since then.

As it stands right now (10pm) Labor has achieved the biggest two party preferred result since Menzies in 1966. (56.9). It might slip below Fraser in 1975 (55.7) when all votes are counted. But it’s certainly labor’s best ever.

I repeat (it’s now 9.30) any chance the ABC can just once tell us what’s going on in Goldstein, Kooyong, Cowper, curtin, Bradfield. Any of the Teal seats? Can anybody else help me?

Labor could have 85 seats plus and the coalition could land in the 40s.

Only senator James McGrath has had a worse night than Peter Dutton. And hey ABC …teals!! Any chance of a second on that?
