Manage episode 480979667 series 2343564
This election was always going to be the test for the Greens.
For the first time, there were more young people voting than baby boomers, and the previous election had shown there was strong support for the party from younger voters.
And, the thinking had for so long been that any election after a Labor government’s first time, would be the party’s moment.
So what happened to the Greens this election?
Today, national affairs editor James Massola argues the Greens’ dream of more seats turned, instead, into a nightmare.
