In a discussion paper for the Audit, The Forthcoming Queensland Election, Scott Prasser looks at this year’s state election, including the state of the parties and the current electoral geography. “If the Liberal National Party wins the forthcoming Queensland state election it will be a major watershed for state and national politics,” he writes, “not unlike the times when the National–Liberal Party Coalition reduced Labor to only 11 members in the 1974 State election and set the scene for the eventual demise of the Whitlam Labor federal Government.”
