Poll Bludger? edit

I've removed the link to Poll Bludger. It's empty. Linking to an empty page, then asking pollbludger to update it, is saying, "I've no idea what poll bludger will say, but I'm sure it's good". Totally out of place for a wikipedia link IMHO. In any case, why do we need to link to Poll Bludger anyway, when there's a perfectly good ABC election profile?

While its temporarily offline at the moment, I can assure you that PollBludger is a very interesting and reliable source of information. When the link is active again I'll restore it. michael talk 02:24, 11 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
LOL the link WAS active! I was replied to at 2:51pm yesterday telling me the broken URL had been fixed. Hey Rocksong, next time try a Ctrl + refresh ;D Reverting. Timeshift 06:34, 11 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
Oops sorry. Having said that, there's nothing there that's not on the ABC link, and I fail to see why pollbludger.com is so wonderful that it deserves a link from every electorate page. Rocksong 11:32, 12 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
IMHO, hardly. Poll Bludger doesn't hold back. The mass media, including ABC to a certain extent, do. Timeshift 11:39, 12 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
Well, I probably overstated by opposition to including it. I'll go with the consensus. Rocksong 12:01, 12 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Davenport 2014 - can anyone explain? edit

One of the strongest Labor swings was in this seat - Belair actually voted Labor!! Other nearby booths also swung at around 5% 2PP to Labor. Does anyone know of any local factors at play here? Timeshift (talk) 05:43, 16 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
