You might be too polite to ask your neighbour who they voted for at the Victorian election in November. Fortunately, you don’t have to.has combed through booth-by-booth voting data to examine, in fine detail, how people at your local primary school, community hall or sporting club voted.
If you live in the eastern suburbs, for example, there’s a good chance your usually Liberal-voting friend switched their vote this election. If you’re from one of Labor’s traditional seats in Melbourne’s west or north, many people on your street probably ditched Labor for the first time. And if you hail from Melbourne’s inner-city, a surprising number of people in your apartment block may have voted for the Victorian Socialists.
At a booth in the suburb of Roxburgh Park, Labor lost about half its total support, its primary vote dropping by 26 points. The Liberal Party only gained 2 per cent, while the Victorian Socialists won 4.5 per cent.The Liberal Party had a strong showing in some of these seats for the very first time, signalling a potential long-term electoral realignment.
The Greens’ primary vote rose in the seats of Albert Park ; Brunswick ; Footscray where Labor’s primary vote dropped a whopping 11.8 per cent; Pascoe Vale, 1.9 per cent; Prahran , and in Richmond where Labor’s first-preference dropped by 11.5 per cent.These rises secured the Greens one new lower house seat – Richmond – on top of its existing three. In others, including Pascoe Vale and Footscray, the party is now within striking distance of a win.
In Mildura, a large rise in Liberal Party support sent preferences to National candidate Jade Benham, a respected former Sunraysia mayor.Perhaps the party’s most impressive win was in Shepparton, where another well-regarded former mayor, Kim O’Keeffe, defeated established independent Suzanna Sheed.
