About this episode
This was supposed to be a Question Time episode, but while Fran and PK were answering brilliant questions from listeners — the Nationals announced they would be splitting from the Liberals. So they had to talk about that, of course.
But before the shock announcement, they discuss why the AEC doesn't count all votes on election night, give analysis on the social media campaigns of both sides — and analyse the third party vote at this election.
Patricia Karvelas and Fran Kelly break it all down on The Party Room.
