Labor Secures Massive Majority in SA Election

0:00It's March 24, I'm Cory with the story. This is Adelaide News today, driven by AI. Peter Malinowskas has kicked off his second term as South Australia's premiere with the commanding win for labor. The party secured 32 seats in parliament with a few more possibly coming, giving them a massive majority in the lower house. The Liberals crashed at just 6 seats or fewer, leaving them as a weak opposition. Meanwhile, one nation grabbed 22.1% of the primary vote and could end up with 1-4 seats. Malinowskas took a swipe at Pauline Hanson, noting she's back in Canberra while he's leading from right here in the state. He made it clear to his MPs that he expects total discipline across the party. Voters swung against labor in seats like Elizabeth, Light, and Port Adelaide, but the party's big buffers held firm. One nation's gain came at the Liberals expense, including taking the Inga jury's seat from Penny Pratt. This leaves the opposition scrambling to form even a basic shadow cabinet. Now, Malinowskas is eyeing his 2026 cabinet lineup, with faction deals underway and new

1:05MPs in the mix. Names like Nadia Clancy, Olivia Savas, and newcomers, Lawrence Bin, Alice Rolls, and Arya Bokas are buzzing for promotions while some veterans might, shift rolls. With few row blocks ahead, labor looks set for at least 8 more years in power, letting Molly 2.0 push forward on his agenda.
