While most are still relatively new to federal politics, the teal independents have had a big impact on the way the country is run.
The vote demonstrated that the project of progressive politics in Australia remains brittle.
Among the more arresting figures are that Clive Palmer spent more than the Labor Party on the 2022 election, and for the first time since 2010, the party that had the biggest wallet didn’t win.
2022 has been a transformational year in Australian politics, with three significant elections and a distinct erosion of support for the two major parties, and particularly the Liberals.

The 2022 federal election success of the teals and other community independents has been captured in three new books. How and why did they become a political force – and what might the future hold?
Australia has a long history of imaginative, even transformative, electoral politics – and a new book argues the 2022 federal election shows that spirit is still alive and well.

There’s a good reason why first-term governments are re-elected – but Labor’s victory last month may not fit the mould.
Senate numbers are close to being finalised in other states, too.
While none of the major polls were entirely accurate, Resolve was closest to the mark; meanwhile, seat polls continue to be highly inaccurate.
