ABC wins election night as Australia plays it safe
Over 4 million Australians turned to the ABC for their election results on the weekend, with the national broadcaster’s coverage as usual trumping the commercial networks.
The top three programs for the day were made up of the ABC’s six-hour rolling coverage of Labor’s decisive election victory, with an average of 2.3 million tuning into the results portion at any given time. The ABC has won every at least the past eight federal election night ratings.
