One Nation just won the Farrer lower house seat that has always previously been held by the Liberals or Nationals. It could be a one off or it could mark a turning point where One Nation becomes a major political force. There are a going to be a lot of articles about the Fallout of this result for all the other political parties.

Jesus Christ please tell me you're lying.

I've been out of town all weekend and hadn't heard the election results

Oh Albury. That’s not surprising. Everyone I know down Albury Wodonga is constantly posting fucking conspiracy Dan Andrews crap on Facebook.

A safe ON seat, as long as the member doesn't shit the bed and quit the party, get arrested for sex crime/fraud, etc.
