Australia Elections: Left-Wing Albanese Government Projected to Retain Power

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) – Early vote counting in Australia’s general election Saturday suggested the government was likely to be returned for a second term.

The Australian Electoral Commission’s early projections gave the ruling center-left Labor Party 70 seats and the conservative opposition coalition 24 seats in the 150-seat House of Representatives, the lower chamber where parties need a majority to form governments. Unaligned minor parties and independent candidates appeared likely to win 13 seats.

Senior government minister Jim Chalmers said the early results pointed to volatility and different contests across the nation. Opposition Sen. James McGrath expected the result would to too close to call on Saturday.

“I don’t think we’ll know who the next prime minister of this country is definitely tonight and there’ll be a number of seats we’ll not know the results this coming week or even next week,” McGrath said.

Immigrants and women.

This is like a mirror image of what happened in Canada, a Liberal Government that is wrecking everything versus a conservative challenger that is about as exciting as watching paint dry, who offered little to no fight when challenging Albanese.

The Conservatives not only lost the election, but Peter Dutton lost his seat in Parliament.

Remarkable. All the Anglosphere countries are stunningly electing total globalists in turnaround victories in which they (for credibility’s sake) don’t quite win full majorities in their parliaments.

Meanwhile the EUrocrats have given up any pretense of elections and simply ban the candidates or parties that might interfere.

If we want to remain a country at all, much less a free country, there will need to be major realignments. Once they’ve cleaned up the riff-raff the Universal Party of “our democracy” will focus all attention on removing the threat to their power.

See above; it’s as arranged. Don’t get confused and think that actual citizens did these things.

The Globalists fully own most of the political structures in the West, and when ‘insurgents’ do pop up, they’re ‘removed’ from contention...that simple.

Freedom is OVER in most of the West, with the exception of the two shooting survivors and Orban in Hungary.

Might as well get used to it - it was a good run.

“elections have consequences and then everyone suffers the consequences” applies. have a relative who married an Australian woman. hear from him every now and then but notice that the once wide open communication style we once shared is more “safely” nuanced. he didn’t have to tell me why but he’s really lucky I like him.

And they just need to put Gavin Newsom in the White House.

It matters who counts the votes.

Need more votes for the Left? No problem, gives us another week to generate more ballots.

Sad to see both countries pushed into a state of decay.

Just like Canada — genetic, apparently.

Over the years, Australia has exported billions of dollars worth of beef to the US. How much beef has the US been able to export to Australia? Not one dime worth. And what calls itself the “press” screams about the unfairness of tariffs.

Crown countries have rigged elections... Just like CO, AZ, CA, NV, MI, WI... the west is captured by the election riggers and those rigging elections intend to enslave us... kill us with COVID shots if they can... They just corrupt and buy off everyone. We are a long way from getting western elections fixed... why... the Global Compromised Pedophile Cult... means to retain control over the world... If Trump doesn’t destroy it globally in this term and before the midterms, it will eat us.
