Firstly, we want to acknowledge the spectacular effort on the part of our candidates, our volunteers and members during this Victorian Campaign battle 2022.
Many of you are probably wondering how the DLP is going in the vote counts – so here’s a bit of a summary.
Early indications are that across all the upper house regions, the DLP is winning a higher percentage of the vote compared with the previous election.
Across the lower house seats we seem to see more of a split with so many factors are at play for this.
Election Results Updates (Midday 27/11/22)
Upper House (Legislative Council)
As of this morning, upper house voting is only around 20%-30% counted. So still very early days, there will still be a lot of shifts over the next couple days before the 5th and final seat up for grabs in each region is finally confirmed.
However, trends are starting to set in, and the good news is that in the upper house the DLP vote has increased everywhere compared to 2018:
Western Metro Region: 4.84% (2018: 3.52%)
Northern Metro Region: 4.64% (2018: 4.17%)
North East Metro Region*: 5.42% (2018: 1.7%)
South Eastern Metro Region: 3.05% (2018: 1.46%)
Southern Metro Region: 2.31% (2018: 1.32%)
Western Vic Region: 2.13% (2018: 1.58%)
Northern Vic Region: 1.54% (2018: 1.46%)
Eastern Vic Region: 3.75% (2018: 1.51%)*Due to boundary changes, the new North East Metro (previously called Eastern Metro) now takes in areas that were previously part of Northern Metro.
