Australian Election campaign are usually dull and annoying affairs, and the 2019 edition is proving no different, but it’s not about who promises what and not, it is all about the Election Night TV Coverage .
For us, any Australian with taste and self-respect, there is no other option than the Election guru that is Antony Green and the ABC. Everything else will be over hyped, offering up big names with loud mouths and controversial opinions, and inferior.
ABC is the only Election Night TV Coverage you will need, and indeed the only entertainment you will need full stop. Just ABC TV, and Antony Green. No beer, snacks, drinking challenges, games, or betting. Just A. Green is his full pomp, with the hardest working laptop on Election night.
But not everyone is an Election nerd, or huge Antony Green fan, and while that might not be your only problem, we acknowledge that not everyone will be happy to sit there and soak up the ABC. Especially not many from the Liberal party.
So as part of our full suite of 2019 Australian Federal Election, we offer up our
We have previously launched our Best Abetz – guide to betting on the 2019 Australian Federal Election, but for those who don’t like a flutter but want something mildly fun to do, we present our 2019 Australian Federal Election Night TV Coverage Bingo.
How the 2019 Australian Federal Election Night TV Coverage Bingo works…
Below is our Federal Election Night TV Coverage Bingo game and you need to do is copy and keep it safe for the Election Night TV Coverage.
And it is as simple as when any one of the below happens or is mentioned in the coverage, cross the box.
Sounds easy, and is certainly achievable if you watch enough coverage.
To make the Election Night TV Coverage Bingo all the more fun and interesting, try swapping between all the Channels, and earning the Royal Sampler, by not only crossing every box, but getting at least one from every channel that is covering the election.
That should be from Channel Seven, Channel Nein, Sky Channel and of course ABC. Unfortunately the others two channels will be too busy showing replays of shows already on from earlier in the week, a nude dating show from Norway, or a documentary series on the great taxi journeys of Yorkshire
