A huge One Nation swing
Voters in the Western Australian state electorate of Secret Harbour just delivered a huge swing. Here’s the results.
- One Nation 39.1% (+30.7%)
- Labor 24.4% (-22.2%)
- Liberal 17.3% (-7.7%)
- Greens 7.5% (-1.3%)
The significance isn’t just the swing to one Nation, but that they won a safe Labour seat – ie they are not just picking up disaffected Coalition voters.
Now it is only a by-election, but Victoria goes to the polls in November and it will be very interesting to see how One Nation does there.
