Don't miss out on the headlines from Federal Election. Followed categories will be added to My News. The Deputy Liberal Leader comfortably held onto her seat last Saturday — more than can be said for many of her party colleagues, including her ousted boss Peter Dutton.

Perin Davey was poised to lose her seat to Labor on Tuesday morning.

Adam Bandt is in serious danger of being swept up in Labor’s landslide federal election win, with his seat of Melbourne still too close to call. The Greens leader was the first candidate from his party to be elected to the lower house and has held the electorate since 2010. Despite saying he was confident of retaining his seat, Mr Bandt fell behind his Labor challenger in the vote count on Tuesday. So who is Sarah Witty, the Labor candidate who could leave the Greens leaderless?
