Back with a vengeance?

Not quite.

More like back with whimper.

Bye bye.

0.40% of a quota for Ms Hanson, so highly unlikely. Also interesting that Family First appear to have lost their Legislative Council seat at this stage, but the Christian Democratic Party look to gain one.

Looks like Pauline Hanson is coming back pretty strongly on the back of votes counted from rural areas of NSW and has passed the Greens candidate - she may not be quite gone yet! :oops: :D

You're right, Sojourner.

She now has 1.88% of the vote.

That's a vengeance if ever there was one ;)

she was dudded by the preferential system. Above the line or below the line. Most punters would have no idea, they just want to scrub their name out of the electoral roll and go back to the kids Saturday morning soccer or the pokies or the golf club or whatever.
There's no such thing as a democracy in Australia. We are controlled by lawyers.
