Probably the least worst graphics 9 Qld have produced recently, but why is everything so BIG?!

Perhaps because everything is bigger in Queensland, whether it makes sense or not! 
They couldn’t have made the music any louder in that promo. You can barely hear the voiceover at 0:16 onwards.

I don’t want a top 20 countdown. I want election news. that counts 7 out for me. i feel like the news will be disjointed, unless they do this top 20 countdown in the first hour with minimal booths reporting.
not a bad line up tbh. i’;d be interested to see who is on the ABC - i suspect that will be my default and i’ll switch to 9 occasionally and over to sky if labor win
