Update: 2017/03/22 10:00 am Greens have pulled back on Labor in the South West Region, While ALP has the best change now for the final seat in Mining and Pastoral (which was previously the shooters). Similarly, the Liberal Democrats are at risk of losing to the Daylight Savings party in South Metro (They’re about 500 votes shy of winning). This is looking very good for Labor, with 18 seats between them and The Greens needing only one more vote for legislation.

Another year, another Group Voting Ticket dominated election. This particular year is interesting because of the tactics being employed by a certain ultra-micro, nerdy blockchaining, got fewer votes than the greatest politician of the modern era, lord Ricky Muir cough FLUX cough.

VIC Senate Predictions
June 30, 2016 | 08:24 | Federal | 2016 | Senate
Victoria is up next, and this is another state where the majors should lock down 11 seats. But there’s some wiggle room for a second minor party.
TAS Senate Predictions
June 30, 2016 | 05:05 | Federal | 2016 | Senate
Tasmania has fewer minor parties running; but this hasn’t really made prediction much easier…
QLD Senate Predictions
June 30, 2016 | 00:50 | Federal | 2016 | Senate
Queensland has quite a few popular minor parties running, and that’s making prediction very … hard.
SA Senate Predictions
June 29, 2016 | 01:10 | Federal | 2016 | Senate
The most interesting state in terms of potential cross-bench senators is South Australia. The Nick Xenophon Team is running four candidates, and has a very good chance of getting all of them elected:

How the Liberals got everything they wanted in NSW, but not what they asked for
September 8, 2013 | 05:44 | Federal | 2013 | Senate | NSW
Tony Abbott asked the population of Australia to “vote for one of the major parties”. It’s a strong statement. He doesn’t want to be dealing with the minor parties to pass legislation through the senate. But, little did he know, a disregard for this message by near 6%* of the population of NSW has advantaged him greatly in his quest for passage of legislation through the Senate.
