  • Comment:

    At the 2022 election, the Coalition won 2.60 quotas, while Labor won 2.13 quotas. Labor has not won three seats at a half-Senate election in NSW since 2007. It therefore seems almost certain that the Coalition will again win three seats and Labor two seats. The Greens polled 0.81 quotas, which was enough get David Shoebridge elected, so it seems likely that the sixth seat will go to the Greens Senator Mehreen Faruqi.

    The Coalition has dropped Senator Hollie Hughes to fourth position on their ticket, meaning her certain defeat. Senator Andrew Bragg (Liberal) will head the ticket, followed by Dr Jessica Collins (Liberal) and Senator Perin Davey (Nationals.) Collins is a research fellow at the Lowy Institute.
