Watching the election coverage on TV, its still very early days (WA people still have another ~80 minutes to vote). Some seats on the east coast only have about 2% of votes counted so far, but... all electorates Ive seen mention of so far are heavily trending towards labor doing worse than Australia did in the Ashes
So trivia time - whats been the biggest ever margin in an Australian election?
Also, in hindsight, do you think,
1) Gillard regrets calling the election so early (in January wasnt it, that she called it for Sept)
2) Gillard regrets knifing Kev in the back? (ie would labor be doing better this election if Rudd had seen out the whole course)
Also quite amusing. They crossed live to 'Albo' who complained about the media coverage treating them unfairly and Jeff Kennett responded with "Australians had made up their mind 12 months ago anyways".
