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.

The exit polls in all States were phone polls like a normal opinion poll. It was not taken at booths. Execpt for Tassie which was face to face. This exit poll has credibility but has the usual MoE. Sample was more than 2000 but cannot remember the actual number. I agree with Ron to not open the bottle of red just yet, but get it out pull out the red wine glasses and be very ready to open the bottle.
Savour every moment of this .. This is one for the ages. We will all look back on this for years to come.
Coonan looks on the edge of tears!
Coonan looks like she wants to cry…. poor diddums.
Coonan won’t be a very pretty loser!
why wont she look at Fran?
Nice summary Roscoe — agree.
None of them will be
“Execpt for Tassie which was face to face.”
Which face did they ask, the left one or the right one?
NO ANGER???????????????????
Coonan looks like death warmed up. She’s on anti-depressives.
Coonan pulls the Crosby Textor line. Too late, sweetie!
and the makeup is caked on.
I’d like to wrap a Cat 5 cable around Coonan’s neck and send 1000Gb of voter shock through her
Phillip Nitschke might get a few calls tonight.
This could be a sweet sweet night. Please don’t be Don’s Party
Galaxy and Newspoll should be exposed for their deception!!!!
She really is actually…voice was on the verge of breaking!
My simpaticos are nil.
joy!
“Tony Jones will be criss crossing the nation by satelite” (Kerry O’Biren). WTF? Is he like the dog in Sputnik?
“Which face did they ask, the left one or the right one?”

Steven Smith very confident, as he should be.
Settle!
this is the sweetest night of all

Ed@Bennelong: what a waste of bandwidth.
Mc Guaren may get a shock and lose his own seat.
I have a bottle of Dom Perignon which I shall drink as Howard concedes.
Ron Brown, apparently the Sky News exit polls are done by ringing voters, not in person like in the US.
Still I take your point about getting to excited about them…
You know the Libs are rooted when they start using the phrase “hold the line”
At least she might then understand what bandwidth is
Shutup, Peter!
Let’s hope Labor utterly CRUSHES the Libs this time, as they thorougly deserve.
the line is gone!
LOL @ McGauran
“We’ve been working for this for three years”
Yes, indeed you have.
G’day all
I am back to enjoy the election fun. I was very happy to see on the ninemsn news website with a head line: ‘Its a Ruddslide, says exit polls’.
87 seats to Labor 53.5 TPP
Ed@Bennelong: this is true but it’s still a waste. Doesn’t matter now since she’s going to be sacked
Oh happy day!
nostradoofus, get excited!
Just kidding … but again it’s lookin’ good.

william,
Take diggers post off. Racist link
first results turning up on the virtual tally room and on the ABC
Lib insiders “gloomy”
Middleton saying Lib insider word is that they’re completely screwed.
they are
BetFair’s still on: Labor 1.16 / Coalition 55.
I have just voted in the heart of McPherson on the Gold Coast. Had a chat to the Labor HTVs, told them the exit polls results which then had just been released on Sky, gave them a lift. Libs HTVers were stuck out in the park, looking very dejected. I politely declined their offer of a card, but they looked as though they needed anti-depressants, body language -10. All the voters I saw once inside appeared to be holding ALP cards, dare I hope. Big ask, 14% held by Libs, but everything I have heard tells me it is possible.
VTR states 0.01% counted
BetFair’s still on: Labor 1.16 / Coalition 5.5
Howard in front
