In other news, Alexander Dore did not get in in Grayndler (no surprise there) but Wyatt Roy, another undergrad liberal, took the seat of Longman in QLD. Stranger things have happened! Unlike Dore, Roy actually *lives* in his electorate and apparently has massive family connections there, so I guess he had local appeal as well as the party line behind him.
Albo was streaks ahead of Dore, but then the Greens overtook the Libs and Grayndler's now sitting on 48.5%/51.5% two-party preferred, Albo's way. He'll probably get to keep it but the Greens haven't given up hope yet.
