As hoped Labor's stunning victory has lead to more Senate seats, but still not a majority victory in that upper house ..

This would leave the Albanese government short of majority, but the Coalition has appeared to slide backwards.

Fourteen Coalition Senators have kept their seats, six have won and six more have been projected to claim victory as of Sunday morning.

If projections hold, this leaves the Coalition with 26 members in the Senate, down from 32 in the 47th Parliament of Australia

Overwhelming victory in lower house, then in the upper a center-left minority, so a check. Tick. Perfect. ;-)
