I'm on The Mercury live at http://www.themercury.com.au/news/politics/tasmania-votes-state-election-blog-with-political-analyst-kevin-bonham/news-story/b905453626bd37b54b037962f31706ff . It's paywalled (unknown to me beforehand as I didn't ask, but I believe you can sign up for $1 for 28 days if you can't see it.) Coverage will start sometime between now and 6:30.
I may make comments now and then on Twitter: @kevinbonham but my efforts will be mainly devoted to the Mercury site. I am happy for people to pass on my comments from the site.
My condolences to the friends, family and political colleagues of Dr Vanessa Goodwin, who passed away today. I did not know Vanessa personally but had great respect for her.

The comment system is unreliable. If you cannot submit comments you can email me a comment (via email link in profile) - email must be entitled: Comment for publication, followed by the name of the article you wish to comment on. Comments are accepted in full or not at all. Comments will be published under the name the email is sent from unless an alias is clearly requested and stated. If you submit a comment which is not accepted within a few days you can also email me and I will check if it has been received.

ReplyDeleteHow long until the final button push?
ReplyDeleteAll manual counting here, no button press.
Delete(Count should finish around Friday week)
ReplyDeleteWhen will the preferences start to be distributed?
ReplyDeleteLast time they started throwing surpluses about 8-9 days after.
ReplyDeleteWhy does it take so long? Surely most votes are counted? Or do they have to wait for all postals?
ReplyDeleteThe latter. Ten days for postals. After that the preference throw takes only a couple of days.
