Click here for some background on preferences in the Upper House, 2025 is a half-senate election, voting for 6 new senators from each of the six states, and 2 from each of the two territories.

In the 1975 Australian constitutional crisis, the elected Senate delayed voting on a bill to authorize supply for the government until the Prime Minister, Gough Whitlam, called an election for the House of Representatives. Whitlam was dismissed by the Governor-General, Sir John Kerr, on the basis of his refusal to either resign or request a dissolution.
