For the sake of good government and relative accountability one can only hope the opposition seats dont go any lower than the ALP cricket team in 1993.

Based on the current opinion polls it is likely but that is not a good result for the state. I for one hope Patto survives in Morphett.


On AA this morning they threw up the notion that Spiers might hold more metropolitan seats than the Libs this time next year.

They also let some bloke on giving a seinfeld reference :lol:

The Labor candidate (now incumbent) received 48% of the primary vote (60% after preferences) at the by-election.

Speirs would need to get that down probably into the mid-30s to be a chance (assuming he ends up ahead of the endorsed Liberal).

I just don't see him doing that (I think he's more likely to draw votes that would otherwise go to the Liberal).
