Why has Antony Green ABC not published the comment below? Is he engaged in political censorship or down playing the potential success of Wikileaks Party embarrassed that his previous claim could be proven wrong, His won Calculator shows that Wikileaks can win a seat in WA.
Great to see the ABC calculator up and running
The ABC calculator shows Wikileaks is in a strong position to win in
Western Australia with just 2% of the vote. at the expense of the Greens
who are polling around 9% (-5).
The 5% loss to the Greens has to go somewhere.
The ALP and the LNP are expected to poll more or less the same in 2010.
Wikileaks picks up most of the preferences from SMK LDP HMP ASXP SPA
KAP SPP and DEM early in the count and also secondary preferences from
other parties once FFP is excluded
The likelihood of Wikileaks out polling the Greens and winning the
sixth seat explains much of the misconceptions and misleading statements
by the Greens who are now attacking Wikileaks.
What is you assessment or Wikileaks chances in WA?
On another issue re design of the ABC calculator:
Is it possible to implement a data population ULR feed, as is the
case in the ABC HoR Pendulum calculator? This would make it much more
useful.
Thanks again
