39 seats each according to Nine. My electorate looks like it will remain Liberal despite many predictions that Labor would take it. There are about 3,000 votes for 'other', I'm wondering how many of them went to me. There were only three 'others'.

I wish you all the very best this election Bob Hunter, all stations appear to be reporting different things. Roll Eyes

Thanks. I'm crossing my fingers that I will do better than the LDP candidate in 2007. My opponents are from the LNP, ALP, Greens, FF and a fairly popular independent so unfortunately I'm expecting to come in last. But that's alright, so did the 2007 candidate. As long as a few people voted for me.

Yeah the election coverage is getting a bit annoying. I've been watching Nine mostly but switching over to Seven, Ten and ABC occasionally and every channel is showing different numbers. I think most of them at the moment are showing Labor ahead by a few seats. But there's no way to tell whether they will hang on to government yet.

Anthony Green really knows his stuff even if his Labor bias shows through occasionally. LOL
