Results in key Queensland seats in the federal election
ABCThe Sunshine State was a major factor in delivering the Morrison miracle in 2019 — a blue tide across Queensland saw the LNP win 23 seats out of 30. The marginal Labor seat of Griffith has been held by Labor's Terri Butler since the 2014 by-election on a margin of 2.9 per cent. "They've just had candidate trouble in Lilley which is disappointing for campaign and has sort of left Anika Wells probably pretty safe in that seat I think," Professor Tiernan said. The blue-ribbon seat of Ryan, stretching west of Brisbane's CBD, is ostensibly safe on a margin of 6.0 per cent — but it was one of the only LNP seats where the vote slipped in 2019. "I think Ryan is a really difficult seat to call because I think we are going to see both Labor and the Greens primary vote increase and the LNP primary to decrease," Dr Kefford said.
