Newsroom edition: the Trump effect, the Coalition's bad campaign, and are we over interpreting the election results?
As the dust settles on the federal election, hard lessons for the losers have dominated the headlines. Did the Coalition run a bad campaign that failed to connect with voters? Or did Australians reject Dutton's Trump-style politics? What should we make of the Greens losing so many seats? And is there a danger in over-interpreting election results? Bridie Jabour talks to editor Lenore Taylor, deputy editor Patrick Keneally and national news editor Josephine Tovey about why the lessons learned from this election are not as simple as they seem

Show key events only Please turn on JavaScript to use this feature Has either major party earned your vote? – podcast With one day to go before the election, the polls paint a rosy picture for Labor. Governing with a majority is still a live option for the incumbent government – but pollsters have been wrong before, and a late night surprise is not off the table. So, after a long campaign which left many voters frustrated with the lack of big promises and big policy – have the major parties earned your vote?

At the same time, Labor and the Coalition have been accused of going to the election on a 'unity ticket' to protect fossil fuels. In what might well be the last poll before the one that really counts, Labor has a two-point lead over the Coalition on a two-party preferred basis.

More campaign reaction coming up. Share
