There are still multiple pathways for the Labor party to form a majority government, after the Coalition's crushing election defeat and the rise of the teal independents.
A total of 67 per cent of Australians' votes have now been counted and Labor holds 71 of the 76 seats needed for a majority government.
At the time of writing there are sixteen seats still to be called, according to 9News' live tracker, with 77 Labor seats a real possibility.
