2026 South Australian State Election - Media Coverage

Got it. I think they’d do it (both weekend days), although there’ll probably be one-day advance notice just like 2022.

Look for an announcement on Friday.

Geez both Seven and Nine seem intent on shoving despicable characters onto their panels. Antic on Seven and Speirs on Nine…

Usually, 10 opt for local 5pm bulletins for election nights. Also, a local update might be broadcast around 8 and 9pm.

ABC’s coverage of election aftermath.

On the TV side they’ve found more ways to call the main channel, such as “ABC TV 1” and “ABC TV Channel 1”.

On Sunday 22 March, 891 ABC Adelaide will lead with a special edition of the AM progam with Andy Park providing a first-hand review of the results.

Then, from 8.30am, 891 ABC Adelaide Mornings presenter Rory McClaren will bring you a comprehensive election wrap-up with detailed insight from each of the key electorates. Find out how seats were won and lost and what were the important issues which swayed voters’ minds. And importantly, what does the future now look like for South Australians.

And as a new week begins, Breakfast with Sonya & Jules will feature on-going coverage and wash-up of the key election issues.

I wonder if 10 Adelaide will do local news, like previous elections. They’ll be on air before 7&9 at 4:30 by the sounds of things.

Is there a way to watch the election coverage based in NSW?

Coverage is nationally available on each network’s streaming services.

ABC News Channel advertising coverage start time in ACDT

When you have an hour to fill before the polls close.

The ABC have been banned from the One Nation function:

It cited the ABC’s reporting over its now-dumped candidate for Adelaide, Aoi Baxter, as the reason for its decision.

Utterly shameful stuff. They’ll be way behind for party’s result reactions tonight.

This from the people that want freedom of speech. The hypocrisy is obvious for all to see. They don’t like freedom of speech if it’s not the opinions they want. It’s all the same fascistic bullshit from maga. It’s all the same filth and so are their voters who do not have functioning brain cells.
