There are people that live out of the mountains, those people aren't necessarily the same colour as you, nor the same religion, and definitely not the same politically...

Come down from that mountain and enter a world that doesn't see things the same.
haha you are part of the 'young liberals'...

can't take you seriously anymore - sorry

2PP from the primaries is 53-47 in the Liberals favour.

~20% of Greens preferences flow to the Libs

For House elections the party doesn't decide where the preferences go, the voter does. All the parties do is recommend preferences in their how to vote cards. Voters don't have to follow the HTVs.

About 20% of Greens voters for various reasons preference the Libs/Nats ahead of the ALP.

Well, I meant that lots of Greens voters end up voting Labour instead when it comes down to it, not actual preferences. Sorry to confuse you.

Power: No. Greens have animosity with Labour because they steal eachother's voters.

Bah, I find in the current times adding all the Greens votes to Labor and adding all the rest to the Liberals comes up with an often remarkably accurate 2PP. Which makes this poll, currently, 50-50.

Nevertheless, a poll in the News subforum of the BOS website is not something worth getting any amount of excitement over.

That is wishful thinking.

If Liberal isn't winning right now, then their hope in the future will only diminish due to the youth vote.

If Labour screws up, there will be a rebound effect somewhere along the line, but I don't think it'll be any time soon. Unless voters are stupid enough to blame Rudd for America's recession. Which wouldn't surprise me.
