Exploring Australian Federal Election Results

About this site

This site is about the numbers. If you want information about the significance of redistributions or other material related to elections, check out the excellent commentary by Antony Green at antonygreen.com.au/
Here we analyse election results, and can explore the effects of swings (uniform or otherwise). Drilling down to results at the polling place level is easy, and a single click will show you the polling place location in Google Maps.

When the results are initially presented, tap or click the first item in the row (the electorate) to see detail at polling place level.

Select an option:

2010 election results
2013 election results
2016 election results
2019 election results
2022 election results
2025 projected results based on 2022 results and subsequent swings, with a swing of since 2022 as the most prevalent
Note that the AEC does not release information on polling places until close to an election.
Therefore the 2025 projected results are based on the 2022 polling places and electorates.

Notes:

  1. Left-right swings are applied to the two leading candidates only.
  2. If Labor and Liberal are the leading contenders, a swing to the left will favour Labor.
  3. If Labor and the Greens are the leading contenders, a swing to the left will favour the Greens.
  4. For the purpose of swing calculations, most independent candidates are considered to be left of the Liberals and right of Labor.
  5. Swings are applied at polling place level before being aggregated.
  6. An overswing is reported if, for example, a 10% swing favoured a candidate who already received 95% of the votes from a particular polling place. In this case such a candidate would receive 100% of the vote, but no more.
