EEEK!

Can't liveblog, too scared!

Though a few moments ago the tally ticker at the bottom of the ABC coverage went from about 69-69 between the ALP and Libs, to 62-70, then to 62-54, without a corresponding rise in the In Doubt seats (it's all speculation on current counts).

'What happened to those other seats?' someone asked.

'It's Tasmania and Western Australia,' I said, 'they've seceded.'

There was a pause. 'Well,' said my friend, 'I'd believe it of WA ...'

'they've seceded.' Huh??

I'm not even watching, I have glanced ocassionally though.

How long are you up here for?

Just tomorrow, I'm going to try and wrap up everything I am doing with the friend I'm staying with early so we can give you a call and catch up somewhere. Fingers crossed!

I'm on the northside of town near redcliffe. It would be so awsome to get to meet you!

It's positively horrifying. Although I'm watching the AEC tally because ABC keeps making me want to climb underneath the covers and not come out until the age of reason dawns.

Cherry and I were discussing Victoria seceding - I figured we could take Tas and NZ with us, yeah?

Yaye for Melbourne! The Greens really do have to start thinking as a third party and not just the whole 'balance of power in the Senate' now - given the figures across the Board.

But OMG, South Australia, what are you thinking?

*decides to go sleep as I can't change the outcome now*

Age of reason -- Oh Mere, you japester!

But yeah, YAY for Melbourne!

*laughs* I was wondering what happened to those seats too.

They were too ashamed to be Australian any longer!

Man-Child Wyatt Roy (Lib) took that seat in Qld. What the...!?!?!

[blamebrampton.livejournal.com]

Not only is he a twat, he's too young to have ever seen a twat! GRRRR!

Maybe his voice will break before he gives his maiden speech in Parliament.

I'm trying not to think about it. And then I keep thinking about it. :(

New Zealand is, alas, even worse. Finland looks nice!

But I'm so bad with languages, I'd never make it.

Tonga?

Too many scary natural disasters. The world is a dangerous place right now.

[blamebrampton.livejournal.com]

Tasmania, and we actually secede!

[complications-g.livejournal.com]

Lolol, that sounds interesting.

You'd be welcome, for some reason we embraced Labor wholeheartedly, with a little swing towards, I was impressed 8-)

[blamebrampton.livejournal.com]

It's because you have the National Broadband Network!

[dharawal.livejournal.com]

Well some of us do, I'm waiting for it to get to my door and then not only will I embrace it, I will take it in, cuddle it, feed it hot crumpets and then offer it all the kinky sex it wants!

[shocolate.livejournal.com]

Good luck!

[blamebrampton.livejournal.com]

WE NEED IT!

I am being a mushroom I refuse to look at the news coverage. I feel sick to my stomach like I never have before in my life over this election. I voted and I will just have to live with whatever the outcome is... I wonder if it is too late for Hugh Jackman to to lead whatever party that wins so that at least we can all have someone nice to look at when they spin their bullshit at us.

The room I am in is down with your plan. Or Karl Urban, even if he's a Kiwi.

How about Jack Sparrow? Everything looks more friendly viewed through the bottom of a rum bottle, right?

Australian voters can't be trusted with this whole voting responsibility thing.
