    For the first time young voters bumped out the boomers, to take their place as the largest voting cohort in Saturday’s election. While the Coalition thought they’d covered their bases and reached young voters on platforms like TikTok, their message (or lack of one) might have cost them the election. Meanwhile, the Greens vote seems to have "plateaued" with leader Adam Bandt at risk of losing his set of Melbourne. Patricia Karvelas, Claudia Long and Tom Crowley  break it all down on Politics Now.

    For decades, Wills was considered Labor heartland. But now the seat that used to belong to one of Labor's heroes — Bob Hawke — is squarely in the marginal column.

    Bennelong will come down to the line. That literally could be true for sitting MP Labor's Jerome Laxale, whose electorate is now notionally held by his opposition after a boundary change following the abolition of the seat of North Sydney. It's enough to make anyone lose sleep except, apparently, Mr Laxale. "I sleep really well, which is nice," he says. He's been meeting early voters at St Paul's Anglican Church Chatswood on the border of his seat and its neighbour, Bradfield.
