I hesitate to suggest this, as I am fairly new around here, but I have noticed that there is quite a lot of interest in the Australian eleciton, so I thought I would make an offer here. I will be watching the election coverage and if people are interested, as the coverage proceeds, I can post updates in this thread, so people can follow what is happening in Australia.
Just an offer. Coverage starts in 15 minutes.
Oh and if any other Aussies want to post updates as well, of course, I wouldn't object. It's just I can see interest.
yeah... keep us in the know!
I don't know how much longer I could last here on the East Coast (almost 4 AM Eastern), but I would love to hear the results down under.
Great. Does Australia do exit poll projections upon poll closing?
18 hour time difference from L.A. We'll know soon enough the results of the general election. Let's hope it doesn't end up like Spain's and Canuckistan's earlier this year.
I think FR would appreciate it! And if you ever are in Las Vegas, I'll treat you to a drink in honor of your great service!
Keep the faith!
Please do, we need the info.
Canuckistan was soooo close... The Spainyards turned into a bunch of wusses. I hope the Aussies keep the faith tonight.
Yes, exit polling is done here - not sure how reliable it will be though
I'm definately interested on how the results come out. And I'm praying that nothing goes wrong over there. The Aussies have been great friends and allies and we are grateful to have you standing with us!
How about we make this a live thread?
I'll be back in 2 hours to help. Only problem is that where I've got internet access I haven't got TV access so I'll be trolling a few websites for the latest.
Three more years!
Ok - so how do we make it a live thread - sounds like an idea, bvut like I say I'm new here
You folks are important to us and we send our love and gratitude to you all. You are our most steadfast ally and we are praying that Mr. Howard wins. We will be waiting for news from you. Thank you and God Bless You!
The Sydney Morning Herald was predicting a Howard landslide on Friday, one day before the election.
gday and welcome to FR
Can we make this a live thread and throw it in either breaking news or front page news. This election will have a direct impact on Bush's and the WOT.
Thanks for your help. Coverage is just beginning.
count me in. Send vegemite and tim tams.
Do we have any websites that will be covering the results that you can link us to?
Very early figures......
