One Nation will win one seat, bringing its total to three. At the moment it is not close to winning a second seat for its recent recruit Tania Mihailuk, but she could be chosen to fill the vacancy caused by Mark Latham resigning the seat he had won in 2019.
Fred Nile will lose his seat after 42 years in parliament, having run on a below-the-line group as a support candidate for his wife, Silvana. The race for the final seat is between the seventh Coalition candidate and the Animal Justice candidate. The Coalition is slightly in front now, but with a lot of votes yet to be counted.
