Primary Votes:
Labour Party: 4,711,363 33.44%
Coalition: 5,370,296 38.12%
I doubt you will ever see any Party with a majority of the
primary vote in an Australian Federal Election. It is the majority in Parliament (in our preferential system of voting) that matters.
Independents: 312,496 - 2.22% of the primary vote. They wanted a lot for their 2.22%!
