Has Antony Green called the election yet? Former PMs farewell a 'legend'

Former Australian prime ministers across the political divide pay tribute to Antony Green, the ABC's chief elections analyst who presented his final election last night and will soon retire.

Ah bugger, I missed the tribute to the legendary #AntonyGreen, having switched off the TV to play celebratory music after Albo's speech concluded. Here's to an absolute pillar of Australian political reportage! #ABC #AusPol

Why did ABC give sooo much airtime to the incredibly painful LNP denialist, James McGrath? - did anyone notice he was actually on the losing team. #abc #ausvotes

@MsDropbear42 @PeterLG

It was a stark contrast to the appalling treatment dished out to Plibersek at the last election.
Perhaps the #ABC is swinging back towards the centre?

@InsurgoFormica
Part of it could be because of duttons comments about the #ABC & the #Guardian the other day. You just know what he would do to them if he’d have won.

I think one of the telling points for this election coverage is that the #ABC panel has Jim Chalmers representing the ALP and Whatshisname Nobody representing the #LNPClownCar.

Politics aside... David Speers continues to cultivate his inner dickhead as the count goes on.

You know what is a blessing of this election, we're going see far less moldymort.

Every day I'd see his hate being spat, even on #ABC.. but now he's going to lose his seat πŸšͺ no more moldymort!

That "smile" is seared into my memory, it will take years to heal from that.

Maybe Ill see him at a petrol station somewhere.

It’s a very very weird feeling to have the election called and Labor HQ celebrating, but not being able to see the data that everyone is apparently relying on.

@static from what I've seen the others called it before #abc

I hope after this election the #abc gets a funding boost to move off crappy #AWS and host their data themselves

@dgar I somehow remember the shape of #Australia to be quite different from what #ABC seem to think it is. πŸ€”

An abstract map of Australia. AI thinks it looks like this:

This image depicts a stylised outline of a shape resembling a face, composed entirely of hexagonal tiles. The hexagons are arranged to form a symmetrical design with a pointed top and a rounded bottom, giving the impression of a face looking straight ahead.

- The majority of the hexagons are light grey with black borders.
- There is a single blue hexagon positioned towards the upper left side of the shape, representing an eye.
- On the right side, roughly at the same level as the blue hexagon, there is a single red hexagon, representing the other eye.
- The overall design is abstract and minimalist, using geometric shapes to convey the form of a face.

What happened to the ABC election servers? I don't see any ap-southeast-2 outages?
