There is one way this can be the trifecta for the LNP

They won the election - tick
Tony Abbott lost his seat - tick
They score majority government - awaiting results

They're now free of the influence that Tony Abbott held over the LNP.

If they score majority government they can end this Zali Steggal persons political career within a single term, because the Government won't need to put the feelers out for support in the senate, Zali is essentially powerless.

It doesn't matter if she stands for climate change and all other sorts of kittens, sunshine and rainbow feel good things, she literally will have no power to get anything changed and then the constituents within Warringah will turf her out and go back to the next candidate the LNP fields there.

Her political career will be remembered as assisting the LNP dispose of Tony Abbott's influence over their party - quite the useful idiot.

Ideally for me they end up with a minority government because theres an extra $200 in it for me if that occurs
