May 20, 2019 - The Australian Labor Party tried to make their national election all about global warming. 

The voters replied NO!

CFACT's good friend JoAnne Nova reports:

Against all the polls, the money, advertising, and the non-stop media coverage, against all expectations and the betting agencies — the Extreme Climate Fix was a flop.  The Labor Plan to cut Australian emissions by 45% percent is now gone — per capita this would have been a world record sacrifice in a country already increasing their renewable energy faster than any other.

Major betting agency Sportsbet were so sure Labor would win they paid out $1.3 million on bets two days early.  Someone cleaned up with a $128,000 win for a party that lost...

This was not just the abject failure of climate change as a vote winner, it was also a crashing fail for the pollsters. Australians have been badgered and bullied into saying they believe in climate change and prefer the left-leaning parties. (They knew it was uncool to vote “right”.) But when the time came, they voted against them both.

Bullying works in public, but people vote alone.

Left-wing policies are failing across the globe and voters are wising up.

The Left grafted itself onto the climate issue out of desperation.  "All the scientists in the world say you have to vote for us, or we're all doomed!"  They hoped we'd believe them.

Meanwhile the climate campaigner's scientific, economic and historical case has collapsed and voters are catching on.

To our friends in Australia we say, "good on ya mates!"
