2007 Australian Senate election

Nick Minchin Liberal/National coalition Chris Evans Labor The following tables show state-by-state results in the Australian Senate at the 2007 federal election, 37 Coalition (32 Liberal, four National, one CLP), 32 Labor, five Green, one Family First, and one independent, Nick Xenophon.

The Coalition also won two seats, including one to National Party of Australia candidate John Williams.

Despite finishing with less than 1% of the primary vote, the Climate Change Coalition managed to place ahead of Pauline's United Australia Party, the Democrats and Family First.

After preferences from small minor parties, Labor managed to stay ahead of the Greens and Coalition.

Preferences from the Democrats allowed the Greens to go ahead of the Coalition and close to the required number of votes to win a seat.

Family first preferences were enough for Nationals candidate Ron Boswell to be re-elected and win a third seat for the Coalition.

Pauline's United Australia party directed preferences to Labor which allowed them to win the final seat.

Preferences from the Liberal Party allowed the Christian Democrats to go ahead of Labor and narrowly behind the Greens.

However, preferences from Labor led to Greens candidate Scott Ludlam winning the final seat.

This was followed by preferences from the Democratic Labor Party and Family First going to the Liberals, which allowed the Coalition to go ahead of the Greens.
