Description | ABC elections analyst Antony Green is predicting Labor will return to power after 11 years of Coalition government with a 20-seat majority.
The ABC elections computer predicts 85 seats for Labor in the new Parliament.
"At this stage we are looking like 85 seats for Labor, and that gives Labor a majority of 20 seats at this stage," Mr Green said.
"Now there may be a bit of moving up and down on that but at this stage that is settling down.
"If Labor starts to slip behind in a few Queensland seats then maybe Western Australia will matter, but at this stage it's continuing to track towards a Labor government."
"The picture I'm seeing is that the Government is behind in everything," he added.
"We've got them [Labor] gaining 16 - I'm always prepared to say that's up or down two - but they're also ahead in six other seats which we still class as doubtful which were Liberal-held," he said. |
