Australian Elections Results

I hope for a Labor victory.

More interestingly is that the current Prime Minister is in trouble in his own seat/electorate. Historically, only once has a Prime Minister lost his own seat Australian elections.

Looking at current results: they are coming from the Eastern states. Western Australia only closed its polling booth, 15 minutes ago (due to time differences).

A labor victory would show a degree of dissatisfaction with our current US relationship

Thanks Midge, this is informative to me. I understand fully well from your posts that you don't hate the U.S. or U.S. people, only current U.S. policies. I concur for the most part with this sentiment. So I thank you for the good information. I'll be keenly looking forward to the results of your elections, and I will educate myself more fully on the implications.
