[TheFoxhat]

When will we stop being kept in the dark about when the election is going to be on...
I am constantly being called up to do quasi voting intention surveys .And are rather p***** off too.... Sick of all this crap

I think Steve Bracks will call the election for December 7th, but regardless of the election date, Labor will win easily as the Liberals are a joke here in this state!!

Is it ok for me to post here SeinDude? Will I get banned?

I hope to christ Labour wins (out of a job otherwise), but don't for a second think it will be a cakewalk. The election will be in the first week of December, and Bracksy will have to the hard hards in regional Victoria to make sure of a win.

Stop counting chickens.

In the last state election, the Liberals were supposed to romp that one in too. And you forget that the ALP don't hold the absolute majority in the State Lower House either.

If the election was held about a year ago, the ALP would have romped it in. But now I'm not so sure. It was reported on the news that there was a poll in one of the Geelong marginal seats which the ALP won by a mere 16 votes has swung strongly to the Liberals.

As NorthBhoy has posted, don't count your chickens just yet.

Champagne sorbet.

And hey, you owe me. Didn't I tell you a few months ago in a PM that Pagan wouldn't mind coaching Carlton?

Not that I am all that keen on Bracksy but that poll was only based on a sample of 3000 people and didnt allocate preferences on a 2 party preferred basis. I wouldnt put too much credence on it.

Labour will win easily because Labour = unions and unions control Victoria

Doyle

The best thing Labor has going for it is Robert Doyle. He comes across as a toffee nosed, plum in the mouth tool. At least Napthine seemed to be a human being and not some Melbourne Club tosser!

Oh how little you know about Victorian politics!Unions control Victoria.Hey there is this thing going around called the 21st century we think it might catch on!
Besides we don't have a Labor government here.Sure we have some ineffective spineless slaves to the rural and regional vote that once had left wing leanings,but Labor?No!

3,000 people in one electorate is still a fair samples, although I take your point on the issue of preferences. And it is a further step to go from one electorate and putting that result over every marginal electorate in the state.

It'll be interesting to see how many independents decide to run in the next state election - don't their preferences usually flow to the ALP? In a tight contest, that should be enough to get the ALP over the line.

You know me - I only want share options with a low striking price.
