Eligible electors:128,005

This table provides first preference votes received for each candidate and party group by vote type.

Notes:

  1. All first preference votes entered, both above-the-line and below-the-line, initially appear on the 'Unapportioned' rows. As further counting continues those preferences will be attributed to either the group above-the-line or individual candidates below-the-line.
  2. An ordinary vote is a vote cast by an elector when their name can be verified on the electoral roll at the place of voting. This can be at an early voting centre or polling place in the voter's own division or at an interstate voting centre.
  3. An absent vote is a vote cast at a polling place outside of a voter's electoral division, but still within their state or territory.
  4. Provisional votes are votes cast at a polling place where the elector's name cannot be found on the roll, the elector's name has already been marked off the roll or votes cast by a silent elector.
  5. These results are not final.
