Labor Landslide, One Nation Surge in SA Election

Here's more Adelaide news for March 21st.

Peter Malinowskas and the Labour Party have secured a massive landslide win in the

2026 South Australia State election.

Early results show them dominating, with the Liberal Party down to just one metropolitan

seat in Bragg.

One nation made a huge surge, grabbing votes and seats from the Liberals and shaking

up the old two-party system.

Meanwhile, regional seats fled tard, like Chaffee going to one nation over the Liberal

incumbent.

Peter also grabbed only for the first time in 32 years and took heartily from the former

Liberal leader.

Independence and other challengers added to the chaos in places like McKillip.

Labour supporters party statewide, thrilled with the returns of power and fresh faces like

Arya Bokas in Colton and Lawrence Van in Enfield.

Deputy Premier Kai Amarher called it exciting, noting new talent stepping up after some

retirements.

Liberals huddled at their venue, facing a night of heavy losses.

Voting had predicted the wipeout, putting Liberals at 17% in the lower house, versus Labour's

37 and 1 nations 23.

In the upper house, Liberals might snag just one or two seats on preferences.

Voters showed frustration with both major parties, boosting outsiders everywhere.

This shake-up hints at broader changes ahead, not just in South Australia, but nationally,

as disaffected voters reshaped the landscape for good.
