Australian Senate results

One month after the voting, we finally have a final result in election for the Senate. The results are:

  • Coalition 30 (-3)
  • Labor 26 (+1)
  • Greens 9 (-1)
  • One Nation 4 (+4)
  • Team Xenophon 3 (+2)
  • 1 (nc)
  • Derryn Hinch 1 (+1)
  • 1 (nc)
  • Jacqui Lambie 1 (nc)
  • Palmer 0 (-2)
  • Dem (-1)
  • Motorists (-1)

There is a chance Turnbull may be able to get the union corruption bill through a combined sitting. You have 150 and 76 Senators so he needs 114 votes.

The Coalition has 106 MPs and Senators. So he needs eight more. Where might they come from:

  • One Nation 4
  • Lib Dems 1
  • Derrin Hinch 1
  • Family First 1
  • Cathy McGowan (Indi)
  • Bob Katter (Kennedy)

So at best they have 115 votes. It will be very close.
