My short wishlist for today:
Clive Palmer to have a shower slipping accident with a brass instrument

As a Malvernite, I'll be devastated if Kooyong actually votes Amelia in, too many of her signs on houses in my suburb.
All those, plus:
They would all be good things. I'm also hopeful that my local member, Michael Sukkar, might lose his seat as well. It was very close last time - it looked like he had lost initially, then it swung back to him as the postal votes were counted. He won on a 0.2% margin, and I saw some recent polling saying he is now predicted to be leading by 0.02%, so it really could go either way.
I have a friend who lives in that seat! It was only a few hundred votes which is crazy ๐ณ
YES
I'm a bit worried because Kooyong did get redistributed to include the extra rich out-of-touch boomer folks in Armadale and Malvern (?)
