8:45am — polls open outside the Jane Foss Russell Building.
10:45am — Honi’s exit polling shows a definite swing in favour of Grassroots Presidential candidate Harrison Brennan, with Left Action and Grassroots dominating the preferred vote.
11:15am — Harrison Brennan maintains his lead over Revive (Labor) candidate Rose Donnelly, while Lift (Liberals) enjoy an uptick in their share of the votes.
12:45pm — the gap between Harrison Brennan and Rose Donnelly is closing, with Brennan leading 56.9% to Donnelly’s 43.1%
5:00pm — With fifteen minutes away from polls closing, campaigners are gathering around JFR with more students met with a barrage of last minute pitches from factional foot soldiers.
It is too early to tell the outcome of the elections with two long days of polling ahead of us. However, with Day One drawing to a close, Brennan remains ahead in the Presidential Race. It seems that the on-the-ground campaigning which brought Left Action success in last year’s election is working, with the most first preference Council votes from Honi‘s exit-poll data thus far, at around 23%. Revive and Grassroots are neck and neck, both holding 17% of the first preference votes.
