Election map

Results

Every figure is the Australian Electoral Commission’s final count for that election: first preferences, the final two candidates, the two-party count against Labor and the Coalition, informal ballots and the flow of each excluded candidate’s preferences. Polling places are the AEC’s own booths; their ordinary votes add up, candidate by candidate, to each seat’s ordinary-vote total.

The 2026 Farrer by-election is the AEC’s count for that by-election. “Now” shows who holds each seat today: the 2025 result, the Farrer by-election, and members who have changed party since.

The chamber view also shows the Senate. Today’s puts each senator in their seat on the Parliament’s Senate seating plan, with terms from the AEC’s lists of senators elected in 2022 and 2025. Each election’s Senate is the one that sat when its new senators took their seats: 1 July after a half-Senate election, or July 2016 for the double dissolution. Who sat, and for which party, comes from the Parliamentary Handbook’s records of each senator’s terms and changes of party. These Senates are sorted, since no seating plan survives for them, and drawn on today’s floor; the chamber has not changed since 1988.

Boundaries and places

Seats are drawn on the AEC’s boundaries for each election, from 2004 to 2025. Polling places are mapped from the AEC’s addresses; 2004’s places carry the coordinates the same places had in 2007. Early voting centres are drawn as squares and sized, like the other places, by votes cast.

The map’s party colours are the site’s, re-stepped so that touching seats stay distinguishable for colour-blind readers.

The seats’ character

Seat types are the AEC’s own classes. The census tab’s advantage measures are the ABS’s SEIFA indexes, ranked into tenths among each election’s seats; between censuses the rank is interpolated to election day. For a polling place, they score either the census area it sits in or, from 2016, the areas its voters live in.

Language and age are shares of residents at the 2021 census, counted where each polling place’s voters live and weighted by their votes; a seat pools its places. The AEC has recorded where voters live only since 2016, so earlier elections have no figures. They describe neighbourhoods, not the voters themselves.

Unfortunately, a polling place’s swing is shown only where the AEC could set it against the previous election, so new places have none.
