Australian Greens hail 'best result ever' with dramatic gains in lower ... (The Guardian)

Leader Adam Bandt celebrates 'massive mandate' and says Greens are willing to talk to Anthony Albanese if Labor fails to win majority government.

The Greens also achieved swings in excess of 9% in some regional seats in other states. “We’ve just had three years of droughts and then fires and now floods and floods again. “Let’s be very clear, we are only just getting started,” he said. “The Greens are on track for our best result ever,” Bandt said. In the inner Melbourne seat of Macnamara, Greens candidate Steph Hodgins-May had received a 7.2% swing and was trailing 31.4% to Labor’s 32.5% with just over half of the vote counted. Well tonight, we raised those expectations.” In the northern NSW seat of Richmond, Greens candidate Mandy Nolan was leading the primary vote at 29.4% with just shy of half of the vote counted. There was also a 6.6% swing to the Greens in Brisbane. With almost 60% of the vote counted, Greens candidate Stephen Bates had 28.5% of primary votes, ahead of Labor and just behind sitting LNP member Trevor Evans. There was an 11.9% swing to the Greens in Griffith, previously held by Labor with a margin of 2.9%. Greens candidate Max Chandler-Mather was leading with 35.6% of the primary vote, with almost 60% of votes counted. There was an 11.2% swing to the Greens in Ryan with 54.1% of the vote counted. The Greens launched a huge door-knocking effort in Queensland in a bid to pick up inner-city seats in Brisbane, pushing on climate inaction in the face of the floods that have devastated the region. The Greens have won the inner Brisbane seat of Ryan, held Bandt’s own seat of Melbourne and were ahead in the counts for the seats of Brisbane (held by the Liberal National party) and Griffith (Labor’s Terri Butler).
