I agree that ALP’s gain is the Libs didn’t run. Probably won ALP the seat. But...
This is HARDLY the beginning of the end.
This is a seat the Greens have not held, and lost by over 4000 votes in the 2010 Election.
This time the Greens had more primary votes than the ALP (unlike 2010), and are only behind by 600 odd votes now of the TPF.
So the Greens have performed even stronger than last time what is a premier ALP seat. Hardly a convincing win by the ALP, and definitely not the beginning of the end of the Greens. Just because you keep saying in Croll doesn’t make it true.
The Greens, while not winning anymore seats, they’re not losing anything and they are gaining primary votes in every single election the contest.
