Comments on: 2007 election: Kalgoorlie http://gorey.com.au/archives/2016 Random thoughts and observations from Mount Gambier Thu, 08 Jan 2009 11:19:23 +0000 hourly 1 By: Michael http://gorey.com.au/archives/2016/comment-page-1#comment-36458 Michael Tue, 27 Nov 2007 09:52:29 +0000 http://gorey.com.au/archives/2016#comment-36458 The late swing would have been the desert votes coming in. I think the best outcome for any electorate is to be a marginal seat on the government side. The second best result is to be an opposition marginal, which is what Kalgoorlie has become. I expect Labor to take Kalgoorlie very seriously for a range of reasons, so the outcome was a good result in that respect. The late swing would have been the desert votes coming in.

I see it's a 4.7% swing to the ALP and it's been climbing since the boothes closed. Makes Kalgoorlie officially marginal.. could bode interesting things for the future and particularly the next election I think. So what do you make of the result?
