It looks like Kevin Rudd, of the "Labour" Party, has won.

This is kinda weird for me to say, because I'm American. Congratulations, Australians? I don't know, because I know very little about Australian politics.

EDIT: Woah! Everyone's getting 100Mbs broadband, and high school seniors get free laptops. I'm so jealous.

Now lets see if he'll actually go through with his promises, otherwise it's Howard MKII

Of course he won't, he's a politician. Yesterday was my first voting experience and I am already sick of it.

Australia is a small island in the Caribbean, famed vacation spot and possession of the US. Either that or a mythical continent that sank off the coast of northern Africa.
Really? I thought it was some place near Germany. You know, where they have alpine skiing? I think Sigmund Freud was born in Australia.

In the Aussie land.
Actually we are south-east of the Mushroom Kingdom, Rudd is in wheat traiding negotiations with Peach, because of inflation I now have to pay $3.00 (aussie dollars) for a loaf of bread. Hopefully we can get cheap exported wheat and reduce the cost of bread.

Just wondering, Mic_128: Are you against nuclear power plants?

Also, RaveveX, if you're referring to me in your edit: I know a tiny bit about pretty much everything. This was a huge thing for Australia, which is a tiny thing for me, but I saw that this thread hadn't been updated with the results, so I did it.

I don't like the way Howard was all "screw working on improved solar, wind and hydro power, lets get more "clean coal" stations and get a neuclear plant!"

The election is over now, but still:
CAOTIC is on the right idea here!

However, right now, Kevin is already showing himself to look promising.
No workplace laws, hopefully help for the Aboriginals, The kyoto protocol will be signed, ect.

In short,
Howard sucks.

EDIT:
Nuclear Power Plants suck even harder.
