Please note the Returning Officer has been ordered by the Federal Court not to declare the count due to alleged irregularities in the conduct of the election, so this might be delayed depending on the court’s deliberations tomorrow.
Well we have been waiting for #more for 5 hours – fu(king hurry up.
Bolano wins.
Its in the bag mate, i am in
does it really matter? There’s nothing left for any of them to squander. The building will be for sale soon just to pay legal fees. HSU goodbye.
“who cares who wins” if you don’t care why did you click on the link – TOOL.
be good if there was some kind of recent update on this
come on vex
Will there be a union reagardless of who wins? Are we really that screwed?
While the AEC hasn’t declared the result because of alleged irregularities in the ballot, we understand this could be announced tomorrow.
We’ll update as soon as we get an official result.
what possible irregularities could there be????
Well i am going to the pub and i will stay there until the result comes in, dont wait up for me Pauline
Team Bolano wins!!!!!!!!
The irregularities before the court must be serious to stop the declaration.
What’s happening?
What is happening with this count?
Why hadn’t it been declared tonight?
This is most irregular even exciting…
fake ballot boxes shop stewards collecting ballot papers bogas win who looses members
Feeney has told his people they spent $100 a vote. Would have been cheaper handing out fifties at hospitals.
What % of the first few days of votes went to Bolano?
Was it in the same ink?
The same handwriting?
This doesn’t smell right…
Deny all you like, Bolano has won, and won decisively.
The irregularities referred to are in regard to the eligibility of the Secretarial Candidate in the 1 HSU team and the Asst Sec Candidate in the Byron team.
No longer a relevant point, because both tickets lost, in fact they came equal last.
To dear ‘Will the fake ballot box scam cost Bolano?’; ‘Expensive’; and ‘Rigged’ you are absolute wankers and losers.
Remember, as Ted Whitten used to say “winners are grinners”
You lose f*cknuckles.

George W. Bush 2000 rigged election 47.9%

A sad day for the HSU yesturday, Balono may have got there by dubious circumstances but the reflection of this out come is that around five thousand members did not want the Balono/Jackson team in office. Lets hope they get caught and the wrong is put right We have to believe that Good things do happen!!!!!!
