AUSTRALIA VOTES 2007

Make ABC TV your election night choice, with up-to-the-minute results and the best analysis throughout the evening.

Calling it first on election night, Australia Votes 2007 will be on ABC TV from 6pm (EST) until it's all over. Join the country's most respected team of political journalists with Kerry O'Brien leading the TV coverage, Lateline's Tony Jones and ABC Election Analyst Antony Green live from the national tally room in Canberra. The election panel will be joined on the set by Senator Nick Minchin, representing the Coalition, and Julia Gillard from the ALP.

ABC Political Editors Jim Middleton and Michael Brissenden will also feature in the TV coverage, as well as other journalists with the leaders in Sydney and Brisbane. Australia Votes 2007 will also provide live crosses to all the key electorates around Australia.

Antony Green's expert views and knowledge on the nation's 150 electorates and political issues is second to none. Backed by the ABC's computer analysis of the count on the night, Antony will be ready to call the results from the earliest possible moment.

Antony has worked on ABC election coverages for 18 years. He has worked on every federal, state and territory election since his first election with the ABC in Queensland in 1989. He has appeared regularly on camera since the 1993 Federal election, when he was the first to call the return of the Keating government. In all, Antony has covered almost 40 election nights with the ABC. The 2007 Federal election will be the seventh national election he has covered.

The ABC TV coverage will also be streamed live at 6pm EST at abc.net.au/elections

On Sunday morning, Insiders with Barrie Cassidy at 9am will have a full round-up of the election results and give the best political commentary and analysis on the fall out of the numbers.
