Comment on France to sue Australian platform Kick for 'negligence' after livestream death

Isn’t that a contradiction? Was it increased or was it unchanged?

Just loose wording from me. What I was trying to say is that their vote count was actually higher this time around, not lower, but the increase was so small it was a rounding error on their overall percentage. The point being, their voterbase didn’t go anywhere, but nor did they attract new folk.

Gerrymandering in Melbourne also worked against Greens.

Are you meaning this in a negative way? The seat was reapportioned and as is the Electoral Commission’s guidance on the matter, it was pushed towards as even of a split as possible.

Maybe it is unfair to call it Gerrymandering but it definitely worked against Greens.
