It's only a landslide if it occurs in the Landslaadé region of Western Australia. Otherwise, it's just a sparkling drubbing.

And while Liberal Party is better than other states in NSW, it is difficult to admit you have an ugly baby, and the Liberal Party needs to have that conversation" — Liberal Party Strategist Tony Barry.

@dropbear42 @lilstevie @[email protected] @wintermin @kentparkstreet @snowchook There's a bigger national question out of tonight.

Over the past decade, the Libs have blindly followed Murdoch's lead.

They've pushed culture wars, they've resisted climate action, and they've privatised public assets. They've tried Islamophobia, homophobia, outright racism (particularly against Africans and Aboriginal people), and transphobia.

And now they're out of office across the mainland. Federal and state.

Maybe pretending this is America and playing to "the base" isn't working so well.

@dropbear42 @lilstevie @[email protected] @wintermin @kentparkstreet @snowchook Chris Minns is also thanking all his extended family, unlike Dom, who forgot to thank his brothers.

Tonight's result just wouldn't have been the same without them...

@dropbear42 @lilstevie @[email protected] @wintermin @kentparkstreet @snowchook "Tonight's result is a decisive vote AGAINST privatisation!" — Chris Minns

Biggest cheer of the night.

@lilstevie @[email protected] @wintermin @kentparkstreet Perrottet finished his speech by thanking his family.

Funny he forgot to mention his brothers.

Wonder why?

@dropbear42 @lilstevie @[email protected] @wintermin @kentparkstreet They promised Dom Perignon and delivered Dom Perrottet.

@lilstevie @[email protected] @wintermin @kentparkstreet Amusing that the ABC did a reaction shot of Matt Kean when Perrottet said he was standing down as Liberal leader.

@lilstevie @[email protected] @wintermin @kentparkstreet In his farewell speech, Perrottet listed the things he's proud of, including public transport.

Are the trains on the Parramatta lines running yet?

Also, talked about the impact speaking to flood victims had on him.

Coincidentally, the list of premiers who allowed new housing estates in floodplains includes...

*Checks notes*

Dominic Perrottet.

@lilstevie @[email protected] @wintermin @kentparkstreet Perrottet now arriving at Liberal HQ.

@lilstevie @[email protected] @wintermin The preseved head of John Howard speaks again: https://youtu.be/Dbi9PnGLcVs

Perrottet's concession speech now reportedly just a few minutes away.

Matt Kean already sounding like an opposition leader, attacking Labor's position on cashless gaming trial.

@lilstevie @[email protected] John Howard just showed up at Liberal HQ in tears.

He also praised Perrottet for his opposition to poker machines, a view Howard apparently shares. Who knew?

(So Johnny, what did you do to stop poker machines while PM? Anything? I'm waiting...)

@lilstevie @[email protected] ABC crossing to Liberal Part HQ. Very glum scene. They've apparently stopped showing election results on the screens. Perrottet has reportedly already called Minns to concede. No word yet on when the concession speech will be.

Labor will form majority government in NSW according to ABC psephologist, Antony Green.

#NSW #NSWPol #NSWElection #NSWVotes #AusPol

Things are looking pretty good for Chris Minns and the Labor Party.
Looking like a wipeout for the Coalition. I hope this is the last we see of Dominic Perrottet. If he quits politics, I expect he'll be parachuted into board positions for a bunch of corporations due to his nepotistic nature.

Summary from the ABC website:
- Labor will form majority government, according to ABC election analyst Antony Green
- It will hold at least 47 seats in the 93 member lower house
- It has so far gained nine seats from the Coalition
- The seat of retiring health minister Brad Hazzard has been picked up by independent Michael Regan
- Dominic Perrottet is facing a tough fight in his seat of Epping
- One Nation is only up 1 per cent compared to their 2019 election results

Interested to hear an Australian New South Wales defeated Liberal candidate (Liberals are the Conservative, right wing in Oz) admit that their "brand image" has been damaged by engaging in US style "marginalised topic" type obsessions (culture war) and that there was no place for those obsessions in Australia.

@lilstevie @[email protected] ABC now reporting Perrottet has phoned Chris Minns to concede.
