lucie digitálníABC 'journalist' claims SA has 'shifted to the right' despite there being no significant drop in the combined ALP +Greens vote.
🤦🏻
Correction: there's actually a slight *increase* in the combined ALP + Greens vote on current count
wolfpanther@luciedigitalni Maybe they heard Malinauskas celebrating capital from your previous post!
There may be a point to it though, if you take a conventional view of Labor and Liberal centre left and right, and Greens and One Nation extreme left and right (thoguh not necessarily how I would personally describe it) then the Labor + Greens being similar or only slightly up, but a big move from Lib to ONP would overall be a shift to the right. If you just sum things up as a binary of either left or right it might not have changed much, but if you took a sort of centre of mass, then it has shifted right.
