Distribution of preferences · Bradfield, NSW
7 counts,
26 votes apart.
A House count starts with first preferences. If no candidate has more than half, the candidate with the fewest votes is excluded and each of their papers goes to the next candidate numbered on it. This repeats until one candidate has a majority; the AEC then publishes every count. In Bradfield the Liberal led on first preferences; the independent won after the Labor candidate's papers were distributed.
