Channel 9 first to call Labor victory.

Thanks for voting WA. :)
Okay now this guy is all 'the environment is doomed' and the broadcaster is all 'wait the Coalition denied all that' and now the senator is speaking in funny voices.
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 24 November 2007 09:37 (eighteen years ago)
Ray Martin's keen to make an impression, that's why he's calling it now.

He added that Howard will take it on the chin.
He should just take off his wig if thats what he wants. xpost

Howard's been taking Dubya's on his chin for years man.
OK well I voted in WA but my expectation is that there will be a swing to the coalition here. It is often (sadly) a state of rednecks, mining moguls and megalomaniacs. Fortunately I don't think it will have any impact at all.
― gem, Saturday, 24 November 2007 09:40 (eighteen years ago)
I hear chanting and cheering and merriment.
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 24 November 2007 09:40 (eighteen years ago)
The mob wants Julia!
― SeekAltRoute, Saturday, 24 November 2007 09:41 (eighteen years ago)
Has anyone ever heard cheering like this (or any cheering, for that matter) in the counting room? Ever?
― Autumn Almanac, Saturday, 24 November 2007 09:41 (eighteen years ago)
I voted in WA for 15 years - got truly sick of knowing the result before I voted. Remember it used to be a 3 hour time difference!
― SeekAltRoute, Saturday, 24 November 2007 09:42 (eighteen years ago)
remember? um yes, I've always lived here. And I worked in the political field for some 6 years.
― gem, Saturday, 24 November 2007 09:43 (eighteen years ago)
Yeah, I feel for you guys. The eastern seaboard is so ignorant.

You're all getting drunk now, aren't you?
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 24 November 2007 09:52 (eighteen years ago)

I've been drunk more or less since about 2pm.
Looking forward to Howard losing Bennelong though :)
― Kate, non masonic, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:03 (eighteen years ago)
Sustained cheering happiness now...
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:05 (eighteen years ago)
Yeah its looking good so far :D
― Trayce, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:07 (eighteen years ago)
ok well that's one cool thing about being in WA. The concession comes at the perfect time to crack open a beer without being so pissed I pass out at 9pm. I reckon I can even wait for little Johnny's official capitulation! YAYAYAYAYAY
― gem, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:11 (eighteen years ago)
Yes, the speeches can't be too far away.
― SeekAltRoute, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:13 (eighteen years ago)
Nicole Cornes doesn't look to happy.
I have to drive to my BF's place 25 min away. Better fkn wait till I get there so I can see it!! Laters mongrels. Speak to you when we have an ALP govt!
― gem, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:14 (eighteen years ago)
Looks like McKew's about to claim victory.
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:19 (eighteen years ago)
We're debating now - crack open the expensive wine when? 1) Rudd's victory speech 2) Howard's losing speech ???
I'm so pissed! i'M SO HAPPY!
― James Morrison, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:20 (eighteen years ago)
Big yucks. lol bennelong swing: http://www.abc.net.au/elections/federal/2007/guide/benn.htm

I used to live in Bennelong.
― caek, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:23 (eighteen years ago)
2) Howard's losing speech
Isn't that what we all wanted? Crack it then.
― Autumn Almanac, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:23 (eighteen years ago)
All networks showing Maxine simultaneously!
― SeekAltRoute, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:27 (eighteen years ago)
New folk hero is born.
She's playing it cautiously.
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:30 (eighteen years ago)
She can't claim victory. Yet. This is amazing stuff.
― SeekAltRoute, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:32 (eighteen years ago)
She's very nervous.
Go Maxine!
― Trayce, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:34 (eighteen years ago)
LOL we just played "Maxine" by Mike Rutherford rather loudly.
― Trayce, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:39 (eighteen years ago)
Waht? No Sharon O'Neill? :0)
― SeekAltRoute, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:48 (eighteen years ago)
C'mon Johnny, you little shit - concession speech already! Some of us would like to get some sleep tonight!
― SeekAltRoute, Saturday, 24 November 2007 10:49 (eighteen years ago)
