No hype Election really too close to call

Hung parliaments, on-going vote-counting, horse-trading with independents and a nation-wide greenslide. What's happening? Whatever it is, it hasn't happened since 1940, when the government required the support of independents to govern. So, the National Interest's traditional, post-election post-mortem will today be undertaken even as the corpse breaths, runs a pulse and tries to resurrect itself. New England independent Tony Windsor will speak to us from Tamworth to reflect on the responsibility of becoming a king-maker; retired Labor MP Duncan Kerr will be in our Hobart studio to tell us why his old seat might end up in independent hands; retired Liberal MP Fran Bailey on Labor's relatively strong performance in Victoria (and in her old seat of McEwen); and WA Greens Senator Scott Ludlam will give us the low-down on his party becoming the balance of power from July next year
