Sky News exit poll has Labor leading 53-47. That’s in 31 selected marginal seats. Apparently it suggests 54-46 overall. Howard trails 53-47 in Bennelong. Labor 58-42 ahead in Eden-Monaro.
UPDATE: Channel Seven exit poll says 53-47 nationally, 53.5-46.5 in Bennelong, 8 per cent swing to Labor in Bass, 6 per cent swing in Braddon.

Let it be, let it be, let it be oh let it be…….
Sample size 800+ for Bennelong and 2000+ overall? Does not add up?
Happy Dance
Diddlee Diddlee Dee Dee Dee……
The End IS NEIGH!
Sweet news! Not long to wait now.
if it was only true – dont trust sky
OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If this goes according to plan (and follows the exit polls), bye bye Galaxy, and to a lesser extent Newspoll and the GG. How sweet.
but please please please let it be true
The trouble is vast numbers of people esp in Qld and WA are STILL VOTING.. This could have a negative effect on voting in those places..
Jonh howard, thanks for running a strong economy, now just pleeeeze f&%k off.
Wooohooo!!!
What will the OG say about that [Opposition Gazette!]!
FFS, keep a lid on it.
This is Skynews not the New York Times.
It could be complete bollocks.
The exit poll is showing EXACTLY what most polls have been telling us for months.
Do we dare to hope? Cannot trust Sky, cannot trust Sky, cannot ………
oblivion for the Liberals – what a great day for the country – what a joy for the blindly optimistic – let it be so!!!
Lefty E’s going to have to come up with a new name for the GG.
10 Flash- if you are sad enough to be like us glued to the screen, you would already have voted. And anyway, they would want to back a winner. The Fat Lady is warming up!!
Dear God , I want only 3 things for Christmas. 1. A Rudd Government 2. John Howard looses Bennelong and 3. Kerrie Tucker wins the ACT Senate seat for the Greens.
Real or dodgy, this should certainly help the vote in those lineball WA seats. It’s much better, pork wise, to have a government member as your MP.
Oh wow oh wow oh wow…be still my heart…oh wow!
Oh this is too much. Bring on 6 pm and let the party begin – Liberal Armageddon is about to begin and I have the chips, some drinks and parked in front of the telly to fully appreciate the carnage.
Bring it on!
Morgan the most accurate tipster!
Channel 7 exit poll Bennelong 7% to Labor.
Lyn @ 18 – already have one……the OG
7% 07 !
For anyone that’s cashed up you can still get $1.18 on Betfair – snap it up
I have a terrible sinking feeling that this is John Kerry exit poll syndrome .. May I be wrong..
Sorry to be dense. But what does GG stand for? Other than Governor General.
What 7% to labor in bennelong mean?
gg= governent gazette
Diogenes.
You have great tase in reds – enjoy every drop of the Black Shiraz!!!
Peter, GG stands for Government Gazette (and Governor General)
30 Sean-Dead Rodent
sean 53.5-46.5 i guess
Sean – a 7% swing. Only needs 4% ish
YIPPPPPEEEE
Sean, it means “Honest John” is out of a job
Its going be a wipeout! eat that GG!
To be clear, the 53-47 was MARGINALS ONLY. The national was notionally 54-46.
looks like the lid has been taken off people…….!
Greeting all from sunny Johannesburg. I have been waiting 11 long years for this day (like a few others) – am about to fire up abc coverage. Anticipating 80 seats, hoping for 85 and dreaming of 90 – exit polling sounds encouraging. Wonder if we’re in for a UK 97 style evening?
Qld/NSW should tell us plenty and hopefully earlyish…
The exit polls are LEGIT. ALP have taken off on Betfair. We have a new Prime Minister.
Does this mean there is a god???
Who gives a rats! The rodent’s gawn!
Brissonden on ABC news just said that the Libs think they are in deep deep trouble in NSW.
Queues 500-600 deep at polling booths and they think that doesn’t bode well.
15 minutes to the count
Nicola PM in 2117
Rudd will remember Honest Johns example and retire to Monaco.
And GG refers to The Australian.. to provide the full explanation
news.com.au have already got rid of the ‘cliffhangar’ headline….
PeterofMalvern
GG=Government Gazette=The Australian Newspaper. Based on view that The Australian is a Government mouthpiece.
John Kerry convincingly won the exit polls against GW Bush in 2004.
Labor is a foregone conclusion to win.
Please please please let Howard lose Bennelong!
