As soon as the preliminary results came in it is that Jacinda Ardern’s Labour Party had won an absolute majority in the new parliament with 50% of the vote. The National Opposition under Judith Collins suffered a wipeout with only 27% of the vote.
The two minor parties that will be in the new Parliament under New Zealand’s mixed-member proportional representation system are the libertarian ACT party and the Greens. New Zealand First lead by Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters failed to meet the 5% vote threshold to win seats.
In Australia, the Australian Capital Territory election was held with the local Labor Party led by Chief Minister Andrew Barr winning a sixth term retaining government via a Coalition with the Greens under the territory’s Hare-Clark proportional representation voting system. It was a night painted red all over with a tinge of green.
