It gets worse - much worse. They are predicting that the balance of power in the Senate will be held by assorted wackjobs - Clive Palmer's man Lazo, Pauline Hanson (fan-fucking-tastic..) and a few of the old holdouts from previous debacles. Abbott has signalled that he'll go back to the polls if they try to block his legislation to abolish the carbon tax - this country needs a government that can govern without have to cater to people who only got into the Senate on preferences.

What's that?

 

The people have voted and that is the end of today's story.

 

Voting is compulsory in Oz (a fine, 80$, is imposed on those who don't turn up at the polling statioins vithout a valid reason).

 

It's not 50.01% turn up and 25.01% of the voters elect the government, as had happened in the US with W.
