Right-wing coalition good, Left-wing coalition (Labor/Greens) bad ;)

Libs and Nats very rarely, if ever, run candidates in the same seats. They might in some parts but not around here.



Correct.

In my seat, Port Adelaide, I don't even see reason to vote at all! We all know how safe the seat is.


So you're going to draw dicks all over your ballot slip too?

I would expect the quality of the penis artwork this year to be fairly good.

I think the Labor candidate in Wakefield is a little concerned as well.

Which is why I voted 1 Greens, 2 NXT and 3 Labor. Greens get the $2 or whatever it is unlikely to win the seat so then it goes to Xenophon candidate if they can't win it only then back to Champion.

I think he's still confident, but it is tempered confidence.

The last polling I read the only two seats here expected to change hands are Mayo from Libs to NXT and Hindmarsh from Libs back to Labor.

NXT supposedly a chance in 1 or 2 other seats but Labor will probably retain Wakefield.

Everything I hear is that Hindmarsh will come down to a few votes again

I'm voting for whoever is against same sex marriage. After all having morals found in something written 2,000 years ago is a great way to live your life in this day and age. Especially when it was bastardised 1,600 years later when most people still thought the earth was flat.
I also expect Bernadi, Abbott etc to go after shellfish eaters, people who wear garments from mixed fabric and sow different seeds on their properties with the same zeal. Also owning slaves from a neighboring country would be sweet. :P

Sharkie $1.50 to beat Briggs $2.50 is a bit shorter than I'd like but is the good thing for the day.

Interesting: I just drove past my usual polling booth and there's about a 500m line
I used to live across the road and I've never seen that before at 11am
Tonight is going to be very interesting

Surprisingly few people hassling me on the way into Gawler high school.

Does that mean they think the seat is decided already?

Quite interesting - a single poster out of maybe 15 that had bill shorten on it instead of nick champion.

Comparatively maybe 10/15 that had Turnbull

No sign of NXT or Greens

FF only had a few teenagers standing around in t shirts but didn't seem to be doing much
