NSW Labor fails to win majority in election as Terrigal and Holsworthy called for Liberal party

ABC  

Labor has fallen short of a majority government in New South Wales, with the ABC's election analyst calling two of the remaining three seats for the Liberal party. Key points: Terrigal has been won by the Liberals with a lead of more than 1,000 votes The Liberals are ahead in Ryde due to a large number of postal votes counted on Saturday Antony Green has called Holsworthy for Liberal Party candidate Tina Ayyad One week after the state election, Antony Green announced Holsworthy would be retained by Tina Ayyad, while Adam Crouch holds the Central Coast seat of Terrigal with a lead of over 1,000 votes. Green said Labor could not form a majority if it held either 45 or 46 seats, with Ryde the last seat remaining in doubt, and at this stage "it's unclear who will win". After 87 per cent of the votes were counted in Ryde, by Saturday afternoon, Green said Jordan Lane led by about 232 votes for the Liberals, overtaking Labor's Lyndal Howison due to postal votes.
