Now Australia has made a decisive choice: Conservative leader Abbott wins landslide Australia election victory. The landslide is even bigger than it seems because of the way the campaign went. On immigration, the Labour party was anti-illegal immigration; they openly supported deporting illegals and resettling genuine refugees in Papua New Guinea. There are very few, and zero mainstream, American politicians advocating a similar position. This is why I've said, the American establishment is very extreme and alone it its position on immigration. The left-wing position in Australia would be decried as wacko fascism in America.
Although Australia swung to the right, there may still be some opposition in the government:
While the exit polls point to an easy Abbott victory, much of the interest remains on the Senate, where the Greens, independents and fringe parties might still hold the balance of power and frustrate Abbott's legislative agenda.
Final results in the Senate could take more than a week to determine, due to the complicated system of preferential voting and proportional representation.
