Anthony Albanese Leads Labor To Victory In 2025 Australian Federal Election

Australia just flipped the script. Again.

Anthony Albanese and the Labor Party didn’t just win Saturday’s federal election — they crushed it.

With a wave of red sweeping across the country, voters sent a crystal-clear message: they’re sticking with Albo.

By Saturday night, the major outlets — ABC, The Guardian, Sky News — were calling it. Labor was holding a strong 52.2% in the two-party preferred vote. The Coalition? Lagging behind at 47.8%.

And the shocker? Peter Dutton, the Liberal leader himself, is in serious danger of losing his own seat of Dickson. Talk about plot twists. It’s like the political version of Succession — minus the helicopters.

Over in Melbourne, things got brutal for the Coalition. The Guardian reported they could hang on to just one seat in the city. One. That’s less a political base and more a group chat.

So what worked for Labor? According to YouGov, it was all about sticking to the basics: cost-of-living support, health care, and not doing anything wild. Turns out, stable is the new sexy.

Meanwhile, Dutton’s approval rating hit historic lows — the kind of numbers that make campaign managers reach for antacids. Even diehard conservatives were shrugging.

The Greens and independents also had a good night, making small but noticeable dents. But make no mistake — this was Labor’s show.

Albanese walked out of his Sydney electorate with a grin. “This is a vote for progress, a vote for stability,” he told cheering supporters, according to ABC.

And if you’re wondering how this all affects you? Well, expect more of the same — just with a bit more confidence from the folks in charge.

Australia, the choice is clear. And it’s wearing red.
