Vic review

Today i am talking about the Victorian result which has proven to be a major under archiving state for the coalition and the greens still making a decent standing in the house despite lib preferences the state saw the second returning lib in Latrobe Jason wood taking out labor’s Laura smyth. Corangmite fell back to liberal hands after a record two turns in labor hands (a labor record) the nats failed to archive a strong vote. Deakin was the third loss not helped by redistribution. Labor struggled to hold the rest of their seats former speaker Anna Burke got lucky in Chisholm. Alan griffin didn’t need to pack his office early in Bruce the rural seats of bendigo and mcewen swung heavily but held on mcewen being the closest contest labor held seat in the country going later in count another tight contest was indi resulting in a sitting liberal defeated Sophie mirabella costing a cabinet job going down to Cathy McGowan the nats held mallee easier than 93 against the libs. A bad record in safe seats including jenny MacKlin in jagajaga should nerve labor in the future the greens beat the libs in batman for the second time running and moved ahead in wills of the libs they held Melbourne. The senate saw motoring enthusiast Ricky muir cause an upset the greens won a seat with Janet rice holding on the status minimum 2 labor 2 lib contiued with Helen Kroger defeated for the libs and a temporary labor senator lost.
