Nov 24� 2007� 10am:� To prevent the advantage of exit polling taints, we've shut down the grid.� It's up to the voters now...

Nov 17� 2007:� Little movement in the latter stages.� Voters have seen the Debate and perused the platforms.� Now they pause & reflect at the edge of the precipice...

Nov 13� 2007:� Folks from the land down under comprise our 5th largest audience of TrendLiners and so it was with great pleasure that we introduced this weekly tracking of the Australian Federal Election set for Nov 24th.

The Australian Parliament has a 150-seat House of Representatives with half the members seeking re-election every three years.� The 76-seat Senate has 40 members seeking office next week.� Prime Minister John Howard presently leads a coalition of the Liberal Party & National Party, having 87 seats in the H-of-R & 39 in the Senate.� Kevin Rudd leads the Labor Party with its 60 members and is poised to gain victory next Saturday in the compulsory vote.


Our 2007 projections are based on a blending of 8 Seat Projection Models (by William Bowe, Peter Brent, Simon Jackman, Geoff Lambert, Andrew Leigh, Malcolm Mackerras, Bryan Palmer & Kevin "Possum" & "Aristotle" ... all who do stellar work for little recognition).� Their studies involve the conversion of sentiment revealed in Canvassing and/or published national/regional Public Opinion Poll data (with avg 3% margin of error) into Projections of how many members each Party would win at the time the data was taken (not Election Day).

Over 50 post-2004 Election polls have been crunched by some of the models for the pre-Campaign tallies; Most of the models' conversions apply the Election Calculator designed by Antony Green.� Please note that fine tuning of the models sometimes affects older figures on the chart and several chart values have been deleted for clarity.� Only the Yukon Projection includes direct polling by TrendLines.� Scroll around or use the menu for our "Race for the Kremlin", Canadian Federal, Ontario, Newfoundland/Labrador, Quebec, Yukon, UK & "Race for the Whitehouse" projections.
