You guys are right that regardless of who wins other than Crockatt, it would be enormous. The difference might be in the longer term though. A Liberal winning there has a chance to hold that seat next election, whereas the Green would just get slaughtered when the federal campaigns put May front and centre as the face of the party.
The other thing I note is that Turner might as well be running as an independent. Other than last night its not a huge party based campaign. Honestly, he would be a good alderman with what he's put forward here.
