Although the overall results of the election were entirely predictable, there's two interesting things in there for me.
http://vtr.aec.gov.au/HouseDivisionFirstPrefs-13745-120.htm - Alex's brother Ben made a good showing as a Green candidate (7.6%).
http://vtr.aec.gov.au/SenateStateFirstPrefs-13745-SA.htm - Look at box F (Greens - 53,000), K (ALP - 295,000), I (Libs - 284,000),& S (Xenophon - 126,000). Nick Xenophon is incredibly popular. As a one man indpendant, he has made incredible inroads. Especially when you consider the Libs and Labor have four or so candidates each.
