If I’ve counted right, at the end of the last parliament there were 101/227 women (44.5%). With 226 seats in the new parliament we need 113 women to reach 50% and 114 for a female majority.

The fabulous @annahough.bsky.social has been into it (and using a delicious format).

Looks like it'll be our most representative yet, in terms of gender!

Based on the candidates currently ahead, we’re on track for a huge increase in the percentage of women in the House of Reps in the 48th Parliament. Currently women are ahead in 70 of 150 seats, which would mean 46.7% women, up from 38.4% after the last election. #insiders #auspol

Excited to share my first ever peer-reviewed journal article, now published open access in Television & New Media.
