CLP wins the Northern Territory
Aug 25^th, 2012 at 9:57pm

The Country Liberals have joined the ranks of conservative state governments across Australia by winning the Northern Territory election.

Surprisingly, the election looks to have been decided by the bush seats, which are unhappy with the Federal Governments intervention. You would have to say that Ms Gillard and her policies must have played a part as well. Wouldn't you?

Bess Price is a good chance of winning the seat of Stuart which is on a knife edge. Good luck Bess. What a novelty it would be to have Bess in the NT Legislative Assembly!!! Refreshing.

Congratulations to the CLP and Territorians for making the right choice.

Well done liberals. Dont expect or even be concerned that federal labor will have their head in the sand of what the voters in the states are telling them.

No seats have changed hands in the Darwin metro area. The Labor cronyist NT public service is due for a good clean out. Some good public servants will be lost though, including former colleagues and bosses.

You would hope so, but it is federal labor that the people want gone more than state.

State Labor are suffering from their own incompetence and the hatred towards Federal Labor

We have see each time an election comes up - state Labor continues to tell its electorate that "this election is about state issues"

We continue to see lefties like skippy and adel tell how LIBs are in trouble

You up in the Northern Territory, Shano?

You ever met a colleague up there by the name of Matty?

Top bloke.

Only for one term. They are all the same, so people vote them out, then vote them out again in a never ending effort to get a decent government.

They replace bad with bad. So be it!
