So what do we know?

Victoria is hard for Labor. Very hard it seems. And as Jim Chalmers has said on the ABC, the campaign became about overcoming the losses in Victoria.

Chalmers:

There is nothing left to be done. You’re in the hands of the people, as it should be. For us I think the key will be, we’re playing defence in a lot of places, but we can limit our losses in Victoria, in particular, and if there are losses of seats whether we can make up for them, primarily in Queensland, where we are from, but instead, for example, in South Australia, maybe northern Tasmania.

So, think whether we can limit those losses I think there will be seats changing hands in both directions not come all directions tonight, details as well, whether we can limit our losses, in Victoria, and make up for them elsewhere, but again in Queensland.

That’s because in Queensland, Labor could win up to an additional five seats.
