A good win and a unilateral rejection of dog whistle politics.

Time will tell.
People might not be so happy 4 years from now.

omg... its sherri  Smiley

and she voted Libs at a time I have gone away from them..  Grin

you just knew Guy was desperate when he started giving away a free set of steak knives if he won the election...

but at least you'll get Billions of dollars spent in and around Melbourne..

out here in the Southwest we didn't get a cent...

from neither side....

and I think the Mood is the same with the Federal Liberal Party...

people like myself have walked away already.. thanks to Malcolm Turnbull the wrecker...

now we have Malcolm 2.0 in Scomo - whether thats a reality or not remains to be seen... but thats the mood...

it could be a bloodbath at the next Federal election with Bill Shorten getting an absolute majority to do what he wants... like shutting down every Power Station in Aust and forcing radical UN gender bender policy into schools


We didn't have a lot of choice in the Narre Warren North electorate. It was Lib/Lab/Greens/Transport Matters or Labour DLP.

I'd guess a big reason why Melbourne people voted Labor is the railway crossings. The work has been highly visible & it has made an absolutely massive difference to traffic. Unless you live in the outer suburbs, you don't appreciate how dire the traffic situation really is. Often 1-2 hours to travel a handful of kms at peak times.

But on everything else, Labor has been a fail.

What has surprised me is how easily Labor won. That's not good for this state.
It says a lot about how pathetic the opposition really was.

Andrews said that he was going to get rid of the Rail Crossings and thats what he's been doing (whether you like it or not)

but like you say sherri - it does matter to a lot of those Suburbs which he won...

remember Ted Baillieu - Good guy but could not make a decision if his life depended on it.. so he sat on his hands and did nothing... by the time that they replaced him, the damage was done...

NSW election Next March... the Liberals will be very nervous...

then Federal election in May...

Liberals Primary vote is way down at the moment...

All the Labs have to do is to continue to keep hiding Shorten out of the Public eye like they have been doing for the past 18 months...

I love how some of the railway crossings are going. That's a positive. Libs should have been out there, vowing to continue it PLUS.
A few simple messages about what they would do with transport, crime etc and the election would have been closer.

Fed politicians need to learn the lesson-clear focus on a few issues that matter.

I live in the same electorate as you Sherri ...
The widening of the Monash has been a good move, although it can be argued that it merely shifts the bottle-neck further out each time they do it ... but better trains, level crossing removals, new train stations, larger train station car-parks, school upgrades, more police, more nurses, better ambulance times ... these things really do pay off.

The Libs were hopelessly negative and Mathew Guy is / was just a joke.

The 2025 election could be a shocker.
