I joined the Interesting People list 30 years ago and was kept up to date with important news for a long time - sad to hear of Dave’s passing.
From an AEC Media release:
Counting will start on election night at 6pm local time.
Results will be updated progressively on the AEC’s Tally Room from after 6pm AEST. A link to the Tally Room will be available on the AEC website’s homepage on election night.
The tally room automatically refreshes every 90 seconds on election night and every fifteen minutes in the days afterwards. Each refresh will pick up the latest results available to be displayed at that time.
