The polls over the last year have been suggesting Labor under Kevin Rudd will win this election, ending John Howard’s 11 year period as Prime Minister (Australia’s second longest serving Prime Minister) and 11 years of government by the Liberal/National Coalition. Over the last week, and the last day or so, polls have started suggesting the result will be much closer, and that the election is winnable by the Coalition. But we basically have to wait and see. Polls can be right. They can be very wrong.

First figures are showing fairly large swings to Labor in a number of seats including Braddon.

[naturalman1975]

Braddon (marginal Liberal) - Labor ahead, but still in doubt.
Patterson (Liberal) - Liberal ahead,but still in doubt.
Parramatta (Labor, but nominally Liberal due to redistribution) - Labor ahead.
North Sydney (Liberal) - Liberals ahead.

Although this is not the news, I wished to wake up to this AM, I will only type....
May God bless Australia, and keep Australia's People safe. There will be many a challenge for Labor Leader Kevin Rudd and his Administration. May our nations continue to work together on issues begun, and may the futures issues facing our nations bear the fruit of Freedom for all our people. Freedom's fruit is bitter to fight for, but the sweetness of Freedom's taste is worthy for those who endured the fight. I Thank God for our Aussie FRiends.

I have not read the thread and I Thank naturalman1975 for beginning this thread. Good Luck to our nations, and many prayers our nations will be bless with such. May our nations aways savor the flavor, of the fruit, simply known as Freedom.
