Australian Federal Election, 2059 (The Realignment)

The 2059 Australian Federal Election was a parliamentary election that took place on 13 September 2059 to determine the members of the 2059-2062 Australian parliament.

The Andrew Burges-led Nationalist government saw it's eighth consecutive electoral victory as its majority in the lower and upper houses increased thanks to its handling of the national depression. The Democratic/Progressive coalition whilst experiencing a noticeable rise in the popular vote, decreased in its number of seats, most likely a result of the division redrawing of 2058.

The New Australia party on the other hand (now led by James Molony following the death of Arthur Dunne) saw a momentous decline in its own seat numbers in both the Senate and House of Representatives, as well as the popular vote, a result of the stronger economy, and a number of in-party gaffes and controversies.
