2007 6 Mark Furner   Labor
Primary votes saw the LNP and Labor both winning two seats, with the LNP and Greens having a sizable majority against Family First and the Sex Party for the final two seats. Labor and Australian Democrat preferences saw the Greens reaching the quota, while preferences from the Shooters and Fishers, One Nation, Liberal Democrats, Family First and Sex Party all saw the Australian Fishing and Lifestyle Party make a large gain on the Liberal National Party. However, the gain was not enough and the LNP ended up winning the final seat. The final result was three seats LNP, two seats Labor and one seat Green.[3]

The Coalition narrowly finished ahead of Labor on primary vote with around 40% each. The Greens finished with over 7% and Pauline's United Australia party with over 4%. The Coalition and Labor both won 2 seats each on primary vote alone. Preferences from the Democrats allowed the Greens to narrowly go ahead of Labor. 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. The final result was three seats each to Labor and the Coalition.[4]

Primary votes saw two Labor and two Liberal senators get elected, leaving the Liberal Party well ahead of the National Party, the Greens and former One Nation leader Pauline Hanson, who this election ran as an independent. Pauline Hanson attracted a lot of preferential votes, which meant that her former party was surprisingly excluded before she was. This meant that her preferences could not go to One Nation and threaten the Liberal and National parties. As such, the National Party, using Fishing Party preferences, won the fifth seat and the Liberals won the sixth seat. The result was three seats Liberal, two seats Labor and one seat National.[5]
