Video here:
Antony Green just clarified that they aren’t having issues with the connection to the NT electoral commission - awaiting data from larger count centres since there are less smaller booths conducting counts.
Awkward pause just now when crossing to Mariam Sarb in the NC studio.
I’m liking the background of the set for ABC News coverage.
And the new leader for the NT is now approaching for her inaugural speech.
Looks very good - different from the shades of blue they usually use - looks like it’s part of that section of the convention centre so good that they are trying something different.
Coverage on ABC News finished at 10.40pm.
ABC wrapping up at 10:10pm NT time (10:40pm AEST time) - NC now going to a bulletin.
I’ve got the entire coverage uploading to YT - will post here once it’s up!
The territory has acheived statehood apparently.
The current Labor government in the Northern Territory has been defeated in the state's election. #9News https://t.co/N5UqoTvNav

Probably sums up Nine’s lack of coverage tonight
ABC will always be No.1 for every state election there is, and has comprehensive coverage right throughout. Only on the ABC - in case the commercial stations are too lazy and prefer to snooze.
ABC’s always had a head start from when they were the only broadcaster in some states to run coverage for years.
Help’s that they don’t rely on gimmick’s like commercials do now.
Despite not having full election coverage tonight, looking on social media and still appears 9 have covered it across socials.
Did any of this make it to air with updates etc?

Who’s the person on the ABC penal that looks like they have just turned 18?
Second from left? or last on the right?
