Labour has the majority in the lower house, with a massive swing. Howard is gone. And it's looking likely he's going to lose his seat - only the second time in Australian history the PM hasn't won in his electorate.

Hmm. Harry Potter as PM...

And as an added benefit for my flist, this should be the last time I spam you with election-related posts. At least for the next few years *g*

I dont really like any political party, they all have things I dont agree with, but Liberals? They are always out to help the rich and thats about it - in my opinion anyway. And plus, I have a friend who works in parliament in Sydney and he is always shoving Liberals down my throat another reason to hate them. lol.

Sometimes I really think that its Julia Gillard running the Labor party, not Rudd, she just didnt have the votes to get her in as leader of the opposition at the time. I like her, so aside from the *fantastic* fact of Howard being GONE, the rest of the result is pretty ok too. But I guess we'll see how it goes. Things cant get any worse, can they? LOL.

I've always supported Labour as the lesser of two evils, so I was so happy with the result - especially the added insult of Howard maybe losing his seat. Heh.

There. I posted.

I posted. Happy now?

And what have you got against Howard? Thanks to him and Costello the economy is solid and the future looks bright. How can you be happy that Rudd is going to f*(k the future of Australia up? Because him and Gillard are going to.
