Australian Prime Minister Defeated

Prime Minister John Howard has not only lost his position as Prime Minister, he's lost his Parliament Seat to the opposition.

The first time that has happened since 1928.

Kevin Rudd will be the new Prime Minister of Australia.

Labour has picked up somewhere between 23 and 26 seats to gain a majority of about 20 seats.

Watching this election reminds me of the Democratic victory in 2006.
