Nine’s telecast is from 11.30am to 12pm AEST.
[/quote] Does that still apply for NRL states?
Seems like NSW/QLD viewers just joined the coverage now, after it had started already in Vic.

Seems like NSW/QLD viewers just joined the coverage now, after it had started already in Vic.
[/quote] Missed the first 5 minutes or so but yes QLD and then obviously NSW did receive the break-into-programming segment. Peter Overton hosted the coverage from studio 3 with analysis from Laurie Oakes. QLD’s coverage started at 11.30 before concluding at 12.30pm.
Not sure if it’s been mentioned but Chris Reason, along with Mark Reilly will front 7’s Election Night coverage from what I hear.

###ELECTION 2016: AUSTRALIA DECIDES
Saturday from 5.00pm AEST on Channel Nine
Karl Stefanovic and Lisa Wilkinson will spearhead an expert team of reporters, analysts and political insiders when Channel Nine broadcasts Election 2016: Australia Decides from 5.00pm on Saturday.
Our coverage will commence with the result of an exclusive Galaxy poll in which we will make an early call on the likely winner.
Half-hour, state-based editions of Nine News will follow at 6.00pm, bringing viewers the very latest from polling booths in their communities.
National coverage will resume at 6.30pm with an unparalleled line-up of specialist political commentators.
Nine News Political Editor and Walkley Award-winning journalist Laurie Oakes will lead Nine’s panel of experts. Oakes is Australia’s No. 1 political journalist and is revered in the Canberra press gallery for his record in news-breaking and commentary.
Joining Oakes on the panel is Peter Costello, widely regarded as one of the most successful Treasurers Australia has seen. Having served the Liberal Party both in government and opposition, Costello is only too familiar with what would be required of a Turnbull government to implement policy change and get the economy moving if returned to power.
Former Deputy Prime Minister and two-time Labor leader Kim Beazley will provide specialist knowledge into the inner workings of the ALP.
Also offering insight from inside the Labor Party will be Former Deputy Prime Minister and current Labor frontbencher Anthony Albanese.
Arthur Sinodinos, Coalition Cabinet representative and member of Malcolm Turnbull’s inner circle, will join Nine’s panel, together with former Howard government minister Amanda Vanstone.
Rounding out the panel will be Maxine McKew, the former journalist-turned-politician best known for defeating John Howard in his seat of Bennelong at the 2007 Federal election.
Nine’s coverage will feature cutting-edge technology to bring voting results to viewers faster than ever, with Ben Fordham and Ross Greenwood taking viewers through key battlegrounds, target seats and social media reaction from the Election Mega Wall.
We have also assembled an unrivalled team of reporters across the nation, headlined by Peter Overton reporting from Liberal HQ and Allison Langdon at Labor HQ.

Still a TBA for TEN Saturday night 6:30-7:30, they could have an hour #TheProjectVotes panel with updates from Hugh into the evening with the decision.
I think the TBA is at 7.30
As TV Cynic says its 7.30 not 6.30. 6.30 is already covered by Bondi Vet. It will more likely be an encore of Offspring. Don’t get your hopes up

Information on the ABCs planned broadcast on their Tumblr: http://abcnewsgathering.tumblr.com/post/146378087186/elections-executive-producer-eric-napper-preparing
“We’ll be using, for the first time, a large circular desk with cameras surrounding it, rather than pointing at it. It’ll make for much more organic, collaborative discussion and great eye lines for everyone on the panel – Leigh Sales, Chris Uhlmann, Annabel Crabb, Scott Morrison and Penny Wong…The graphics technology has been used around the world to illustrate election results and we’ll be tailoring it to make the most of the cavernous Ultimo interior. Results graphics will hang off walls and balconies, float in mid-air and grow out of the floor. It’ll be a visual feast.”

Some of the previews look amazing, very CNN-esque… a far cry from the graphic fails of News 24. Good to see the ABC innovating
