How exactly is it better for the Greens?
It won't even come close to changing the balance of power. Now, if they decided not to run candidates in the next general election where the ABC candidate had a chance then it might make a difference. Of course then there really isn't a reason to have a Green party at all if that is the case. They can just change the name to the May Party and try to keep the Gulf Islands seat. It's not like the Liberals have some great environmental legacy.
