so who voted Labor in NSW?

Judging by the results, not many people voted for labor at all.
I guess at the end of the day, no matter who you vote for, you get a politician.

The biggest unknown now is the makeup of the senate and who Bazza will have to deal with. There were heaps of nutcase parties for the senate. I was hoping labour would only get around 11 seats. Loads of people saying they voted libs for the first time.

Fishing party for me as they all end up being a bag of crap anyway

The Greens are marginalized and will have no say in the next 4 yrs ( I presume they are one of the nut cases your worried about )

Are the upper house results in? Nutcases are Fred Nile, Fishers etc. Greens have done badly as they are getting tainted by federal labour. Compared to aforementioned the greenies are quite sane.

I can,t see the distinction between the two irrational beliefs Fred Nile or NSW Green ( check out the Greens latest senator who will be in Parliament in July

The distinction is enormous. One is a racist homophobic ignoramus and the other cares for the environment.
It was either the Insiders on ABC this morning or Anthony Green on ABC 24 last night they gave the Upper House result (not final but 99.99% )

I can agree with both your comments but it still doesn't make the Greens rational IMO

The fresh threat from the Greens followed a morning of provocative taunts from the Resources Minister Martin Ferguson, with the Labor frontbencher first likening the party to ''basket-weavers'' and then branding the Greens leader ''soapbox Bob''.

Yup. Liberal hating too. But that can be squarely blamed on the mad monk.
Also voted below the line for the upper house; just to fill out the last preference against Pauline Hanson. Boy that was enjoyable in its own little way. Filling out 311 preferences does take some time. Enjoyable, none the less.
