        Certainly isnt. Greens lost #Batman....Labor didnt 'win'. Greens poor result in #savotes also proves that. @Greens are in trouble Australia wide.....Labor not so good either. #auspol

        Here comes the negative spin. The Liberals were backing Alex to knock off Ged, and they got creamed. Big win for Bill and all involved. Great campaign and a ringing endorsement of Labor at a Federal level. #auspol

        You do realize that the Australian Conservative Party which is all Liberal voters preferenced Labor over the Greens. That’s what got Labor over the line. Unbelievable what a stooge you are.

        Says more about the state of the Greens than anything else. Tasmania was a shocker. Now this. I think people are starting to wake up to the fact that the Greens are not a party you turn to when you want solutions to problems. #savotes2018

        On the other hand, a win is a win is a win! MT kinda said that when the Coalition lost 14 seats in 2016 to secure a majority of 1. It's still a win, though!

        But a 7.4% loss in primary vote by the Libs in SA is something to crow about? I see...

        Oh dear, the RWNJS will twist anything to give themselves a pep us. You fucking didn't even run a candidate, you definitely wanted a green victory. Love how they live in their delusional bubble. #fizzayouarenext

        Liberals didn’t run a candidate because it was pointless and a total waste of resources to go and squander it on a losing cause. We all know that fiscal responsibilities have never been the left wings strong point. But Labor have also not run candidates in the past
