Time for the Poll Bludger’s bi-monthly hustle for a little extra cash, which can be made through the “become a supporter” buttons at the top of the site and at the bottom of each post. Donations are always gratefully received, though perhaps especially so in the fallow period that typically follows a federal election. The next big electoral event is the South Australian state election on March 21, for which I’m currently making good progress on an election guide that I hope to get into a publishable state before the end of November. Also on the horizon is a potentially interesting state by-election for the northern Queensland seat of Hinchinbrook, though the relevant authorities seem to be dragging their heels on setting a date. Whenever it is, Poll Bludger will be on the case with its famous live results and projections feature.
