Expected final result LABOR 27 LIBERAL 16 IND 4
On this page: Waite (assumed Labor win vs Holmes-Ross (IND), exclusion order issues.)
On this page: Finniss (Liberal expected to defeat IND, either by exclusion order or on 2CP. )
On this page: Hammond (assumed Liberal win)
On this page: Flinders (assumed Liberal win)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General update 30/3: All seats have been determined now with the result at 27-16-4. As Hammond is now showing as a 2PP I am assuming it as well as Waite finished as 2PP contests while Finniss and Flinders did not, but I am awaiting confirmation of that.

Welcome to my SA 2022 post-counting coverage. The result of the election was a win to Labor with about as many seats as polling-based seat models predicted, but the downside for the Liberals in terms of losses to independents appears to be on the high side. As well as the expected wins by Dan Cregan in Kavel (a massive win) and Fraser Ellis in Narungga, they have lost to Geoff Brock in Stuart. That leaves two seats that are the subject of this thread - Finniss (where they may lose to a new independent) and Waite, where the ex-Liberal independent Sam Duluk seems to be doomed but it's not at all clear that the Liberals will get the seat back. This is the thread for messy, interesting post-counts, and I also have one up for the vanilla postcounts and the Legislative Council (which currently seems to be tracking towards 5 Labor, 4 Liberal, 1 Green and a battle between One Nation and the reborn Family First for the final seat (or maybe LDP but they have form for dying on preferences.))
