OUCH: Patriot Ned Flanders Henry Barlow Loses To Militant Greenista in Western Metro

Members of the OC Investigations Unit report that one of the OC's favourite candidates Henry "Ned Flanders" Barlow, a Labor moderate patriot has very narrowly missed out (by 120 votes we hear) to the nasty Greens extreme left candidate Colleen Hartland for the fifth spot in the Western Metropolitan seat.

Greens insiders say that Comrade Colleen is far more feral than Greg Barber, who is the natural leader of the Greens although is considerably to the right of left-wing nutter Hartland.

This gives the extreme Greens three Members of the Legislative Council, leaves Labor with 19, the centrist DLP with 1, the Nats with 2 and Liberals with 15.

Game on.

4.53AM UPDATE OC investigators on the ground report that It transpires that the 6000 mystery votes were Greens votes which were incorrectly allocated to the Liberals. Some are saying this a bungle etc for the VEC, but what does it say about the diligence, eyesight and competence of Greens scrutineers. We know they eat hash cookies at home, but did they actually bring them in to Jeff's Shed to keep them going through the count as well? We should perhaps be more gracious at this point, like the gracious patriot Ned Flanders. Patriots still up at this hour should stand by for the Western Victoria result.
