Clive Palmer candidate could be Victorian senator thanks to Liberal ... (The Age)

Despite an estimated $100 million spent by the mining magnate during the federal election, the UAP secured just 4.3 per cent of the national vote.

In Holt, a Labor seat that covers Hampton Park, Cranbourne and Lynbrook in Melbourne’s outer southeast, the UAP secured a swing of 4 per cent. It is expected to go to the Liberal Party’s Jenny Ware. He pleaded guilty to unlawful assault in 2018 before a magistrate dismissed the charge when he complied with an undertaking. These are issues associated with rapidly growing suburbs, poor infrastructure, and no support from either major parties. Its lowest votes were in the ACT and Tasmania. This translates to about $210 spent on each vote.

One Nation, UAP and 'freedom movement' parties fail to make an ... (Crikey)

Despite a pandemic, tens of millions of dollars of advertising and a swing away from major parties, freedom movement-aligned parties failed.

Nationwide, the party added less than 1% to bring its primary vote to 4.3% in the House of Representatives, claiming no seats and losing its parliamentary leader Craig Kelly’s seat in Hughes. However, it did see big spikes in its votes in outer-suburban seats in Queensland and Victoria and may might pick up a Senate spot in Victoria. Palmer’s near-$100 million spend has barely improved the UAP’s showing from the 2019 election. With the Senate count still under way, it appears far-right, conspiracy-promoting groups have been unable to capitalise on a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic, a billionaire magnate’s seemingly endless advertising coffers, and a move away from the two major parties.
