You need to watch Micallef's Mad As Hell
Even without the units of measurement on the X-axis, that graph doesn't look like it has any correlation at all. In fact it just feels salty to me.
Should've just had an ipad streaming to the board lol

Oh fuck yeah cheers
I'm not seeing what you're seeing B1.
There is definitely a large concentration around the lower end and the swing level moves down as you move further to the right of the x axis.
Education is based on "number of people with bachelor, grad dip and post grad degrees"

It's a pretty simple graph to read.

Wait Clive Palmer may win a seat, Sophie Mirabella may lose her's, Diaz might not win a unlosable seat and completely disappear forever, Wilkie and Bandt win. Could be a lost worse!
What is an education scale anyhow?
Doesn't really seem to be any trend there other than an LNP swing.

New thread? We'll all be dead from the suicide pact, it'll just be a Ventron/PhantomZone echo chamber.
"Australia elects boat-fearing, gay-hating, sexist misogynist bumbling asshole"
Although of course that won't be in any way accurate because Australia votes in the party, not the leader (AS WE HAVE ALL LEARNED OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS)
The only thing you could conclude from that graph is there are more electorates with lesser percentage of people with degrees. I know people in this thread are desperate to believe this but come on. You know there is no trend. I know there is no trend.
Even if there was, and I'm giving this way more ground than it deserves, but even if there was, what happened to correlation is not causation?

I don't know if I approve of this sentiment; I still sincerely hope that whoever governs the country still does their very best for the country and that they act in Australia's interests regardless of their ideological affiliation. I'd like Abbot to do "good" because that will, hopefully hopefully hopefully hopefully, align with my conception of good and hopefully your conception of good. Politics is a pragmatic business and--
hey wait a second
julie bishop as foreign minister
hmm
hmmm
HMMMM
Ahh well, seeing Australia in shambles for pure ideological satisfaction doesn't really float my boat. As long as the sausage sizzle is as good in three years!

Well done Liberal Party, good job Australia. Three years later than it should have been but time to erase the last 6 years of horrendous government.
Nobody has said anything about causation except you. And if you can't see the correlation there, I don't think I will be able to help you over the internet. There is a cluster for all education levels between -5 an +10, yeah? And only in the lower education levels do you see the very large swings. It is pretty clear. It may not be a strong correlation, but it is a very clear one.
Let's salt it so much we gotta eat some Red Rock Deli for relief.
Jesus christ, that's perfect!

I'm not so sure about this graph either, without better access to the data, I can see maybe a slight tendency here to what he is suggesting, but with no great confidence level. A 1-2% level difference between say outer suburbs of major cites and the ACT could easily be explained by many things.
If one of my undergrads or post candidates came to me with this and called it definitive, I'd laugh it off.
Edit: I just found out the Wallabies are playing tonight, who knew!
One of the Strongest economies in the western world, low unemployment, strong policy initiatives... Yeah we're really in dire straits. Fuckwit.
ABC frontpage:
Yeah, it is a weak correlation, but it is clear one.
So why did you pander to them you Labor fucks?!
Yeah, it is a weak correlation, but it is clear one.

Would be in favour of an AusPol thread if we could support it.

I can forsee Monday being full of depressed public servants on the phone to me. Joy.
On the plus side they might outsource even more of the Department of Housing than they already have so that would be a nice win for our company in terms of revenue (sorry tax payers lol).

Man, I could stomach it if Turnbull had been leading. Even with the amazing policy backflip a few nights ago, he's still a politician who seems at least halfway human.
But jesus fucking Christ. Tony Abbott? Fucking Tony Abbott? Christ. That's the person who is going to represent Australia to the world. Hoo, boy.
