[snoopen]

Some instagrams of election day
Wish I could vote at Old Parliament House.

Also one I saw on facebook from in my electorate

Should've gone there. Went to the one at a school in my street instead. No food or nothing.

I voted at oph.. 2 hours to get from the entrance to vote. complete Fuck up from the volunteers organising.. nobody was happy.

"For voting below the line in the Senate, voters may use a consecutive series in various styles – such as: numerals (1 2 3), words (one two three), roman numerals (I II III IV), or ordinal numerals (1st 2nd 3rd). In certain cases, a mixture of numbering sequences can be used, provided that the voter's intention is clear."

Awesome. Something to try next time

IS IT A TWO OR AN ELEVEN OH GOD THIS IS SO CONFUSING.

 

[mandiller]

What time do we start drinking??

I brought out Das Boot for this special occasion

Fuck that.

 

[snoopen]

Oph?

Fuck that.

[Damo Yoshi]

Tasmania!! :crankykongshakingcanegif:

Also, my sausage sizzle was surprisingly super great!~

 

[roosters93]

oph = old parliament house

Oh right. My mind was focused on the photo and when you said the entrance, funnily enough there's a suburb near here named The Entrance.

2 hours of peoples' Saturday to vote. Not on.

I have three unopened Cascades from the eighties that might be cracked tonight. Or thrown at Eric Abetz's office, which is about 50m down the road.

[roosters93]

Guys, guys... Watch it on Channel Seven! They've got all my favourite personalities like Christopher Pyne and Alexander Downer.

 

[jgminto]

Drinking off brand coconut rum mixed with whatever juice I have in the fridge.

 

[bomma_man]

Channel 7 must be 90% of surfaces's user base

[i_am_ben]

Which speech are we looking forward too more ? Rudd's concession or Abbott's victory ?

No one wants to see Rudd cry

Spoiler

again

 

[tri_willy]

Good riddance Rudd, I never liked the man and could not understand the adoration he gets.

Not an Abbott supporter but must say, as someone who doesn't live in Australia at present, the idea of Abbott in power gives me a great feeling of schadenfreude.

gtfo

may as well make fun of this damned election

 

[Yagharek]

Drinks: cider, red, white, champers and if it gets real bad, hellyers road peat thingy.

I might be celebrating only for green senate results, if at all.

 

[DeSo]

I never thought I'd see him become PM but it's happening.

 

[Salazar]

Not at dinner time, bro. Show some decorum.

 

[tsumineko]

Haha I was thinking the same thing. I'm on ABC now.

 

[jgminto]

Watching these kids on ten, most of them are smarter than the whole bloody gov!

 

[Kanyon]

Abbott as PM?! We are so fucked aren't we?

So long NBN and equal rights for gay couples, we dared to dream big but alas it wasn't enough... ;'-(

 

[shanshan310]

I've got my overpriced yet delicious alcopops ready.

Not at dinner time, bro. Show some decorum.

Well, he could have posted Pine.

 

[mandiller]

Antony Green has called it. PM Abbott (as expected)

 

[bobnowhere]

Is there any good news yet?

At least Arthur Sinodinos is on ABC24, a good decent thoughtful Lib. I can't imagine having to watch Costello, Michael Kroeger, Ross Cameron etc... gloat endlessly.

 

[EatChildren]

Antony Green has called it. PM Abbott (as expected)

One last punishment we must endure.

 

[TriangleOfCorruption]

It's going to be a long/short night.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Antony Green has called it. PM Abbott (as expected)

But but, only 3.3% counted so far.

 

[m3k]

WA senate ticket only got up to 62, otherwise I would do this.

 

[Box of Bunnies]

Don't you know it's true what they say, things are sent to try you. But your time's coming around, so don't you stop tryin'.

 

[mandiller]

Doesn't matter. There is zero trend towards the ALP. And don't forget Labor is in a minority government and needs to WIN seats to win the election. It can't lose them.

 

[toddhunter]

Palmer crushing the greens. Looks like our senate football team is going to be a lot stronger soon.

 

[bomma_man]

I'm going to get so so hammered tonight, I apologise in advance for any incoherent posts later on.

 

[Jake.]

ABC has the best 'unbiased' and serious coverage on free-to-air right? channel 10's 'the project' covering it is a joke.

Thanks for smashing my hopes and dreams.

I get the feeling there will be a lot of that later tonight.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

Who the fuck are all these idiots voting for Clive Palmer?

Diaz is behind in Greenway

Yeeeeeesssssssssss

 

[TriangleOfCorruption]

I think I could deal with this if I didn't have to sit through Scott Morrison on 9

I'm biased, but we've got Stephen Smith, Arthur Sinodinos, Antony Green, Kerry O'Brien etc. it's been really good this year so far.

 

[roosters93]

What's surface

Why is the ABC's seats won so high? wtf's going on there

Predicted. I was confused earlier too. Website shows different stats.

I flipped to it early on in the night, it was bloody typical Project bullshit so I was like "yeah no".

 

[Rubixcuba]

Just switched over to It and heard a laugh track playing and a picture of Rudd. I went back to the ABC straight away.
