Australia has a new government and potentially a new approach to federal politics as Greens and independents became the story of the 2022 election.
So, who are the winners and losers from this year's federal election?
Winner: Anthony Albanese
After 26 years in parliament and just six in government, Anthony Albanese has led Labor from the political wilderness and back into office.
The son of a single mother who grew up in public housing, he said he hopes his win will inspire a generation of future leaders.
He's vowed to implement policies to address climate change, stagnant wages, closing the gender pay gap, Indigenous recognition and strengthening Medicare.
Loser: Scott Morrison
It was a trifecta for the Liberal leader last night — he lost the prime ministership, stepped down as leader of the Liberal Party, and there was a swing of 6 per cent against him in his very safe seat of Cook.
Winner: Independents
Teal independents — named after the colour most used for their election materials — have been one of the major stories of the election.
Not only did they challenge incumbents, they beat them across the country.
The Liberal Party suffered the biggest losses to independents, but Labor also lost a seat to independent Dai Le, who did not associate with the teal campaign.
Winner: The Greens
The Greens have had their best election result, taking their representation in the lower and upper houses to record levels.
The party has won the Liberal Brisbane seats of Ryan and Griffith and looks likely to take the seat of Brisbane.
Early Senate results suggest the party will reach 12 seats and play a crucial role if Labor is to pass any legislation.
Loser: Josh Frydenberg
While not prepared to concede in Kooyong, it appears clear that not only are his aspirations to be PM over but he's lost his seat to independent challenger Monique Ryan as well.
Mr Frydenberg is considered a huge loss for the Liberal Party as it attempts to rebuild after this rout.
Loser: Two-party system
From the very first results on Saturday night, it was clear we were seeing an election the likes of which Australia had never seen before.
With a huge national swing away from the Liberal Party, a smaller swing away from Labor and a surge in votes for minor parties and independents, the chamber will look nothing like the typical blue and red we've seen before.
Winner: Peter Dutton
With Josh Frydenberg losing his seat, Peter Dutton emerges from the Coalition's defeat as the frontrunner to replace Scott Morrison as Liberal leader.
The outgoing Defence Minister lost to Mr Morrison in a leadership ballot after the Liberal Party dumped Malcolm Turnbull as PM in 2018.
The long-serving cabinet minister is one of the most high-profile Liberals still in the parliament.
Loser: Liberal moderates
The moderate wing of the Liberal Party suffered the most from teal independent challengers, with the likes of North Sydney's Trent Zimmermann and Josh Frydenberg losing their seats.
Leader of the moderate faction Simon Birmingham has been openly conciliatory, saying a lack of ambition on climate action and even historical decisions like taking equal marriage to a plebiscite had cost them in those once blue-ribbon seats.
Without Frydenberg, it's unclear which moderate Liberal might now put their hat in the ring to run to be leader of the party.
Winner: Dai Le
Labor's decision to parachute frontbencher Kristina Keneally into Fowler, one of the most diverse electorates in the country, prompted the Deputy Mayor of Fairfield to run as an independent.
Ms Le did not take money from the Climate 200 group, distancing herself from the teal independents, and was able to capitalise on dissatisfaction at Labor's attempt to overlook local candidates for former senator Ms Keneally.
The Western Sydney seat of Fowler was one of Labor's safest seats prior to the election, but the retirement of Chris Hayes opened up the field.
Loser: Kristina Keneally
Keneally's parachuting into a Labor stronghold seat held with a 14 per cent margin to solve an internal party battle has clearly backfired, and her political career may now be over because of it.
The former NSW premier moved from Scotland Island in Sydney's northern beaches to Liverpool and spent much of the campaign fending off accusations that she did not understand the very multicultural community and would move on if she did not win.
Fowler is one of the few seats Labor lost, so it's a strong personal rejection of the US-born former NSW leader.
Winner: Mark McGowan
The popularity of the Western Australian Premier clearly boosted Labor support in the West, where it received its biggest swings.
Despite some criticisms from his party for appearing alongside Mr Morrison early in the federal election campaign, Mr McGowan's pandemic popularity appears to have washed over into the federal contest.
Labor's picked up at least four seats from the Liberals in WA, thanks to a statewide swing of more than 10 per cent.
If federal Labor does manage to secure a majority, it will be a direct result of the WA swing and Mr Albanese will have Mr McGowan's popularity to thank.
Loser: Ken Wyatt
The first Indigenous person in Cabinet and first elected to House of Representatives was well-liked and, despite not facing an independent challenger, has lost his seat anyway.
Wyatt was beaten by Labor's Tania Lawrence, who enjoyed an almost 12 per cent swing away from the MP who had held the WA seat since 2010.
Loser: Clive Palmer
Despite all the advertising money spent across the country, Clive Palmer's United Australia Party looks to have not won a single seat in either house of the parliament.
Winner: Jacqui Lambie
Jacqui Lambie appears to have successfully doubled her party's numbers in the Senate, with Tasmanian Tammy Tyrrell on track to join her boss in Canberra.
As a party of two, the Jacqui Lambie Network will likely wield influence, given Labor would need support from the Greens and others to pass legislation that the Coalition opposes.
It's likely Labor would first look to negotiate with Senator Lambie to get the final numbers to pass its agenda in the upper house.
Winner: Bridget Archer
Bridget Archer was the Liberals' most marginal seat holder coming into the election.
She bucked the nationwide trend of Liberal losses and looks set to hold onto her Tasmanian seat of Bass.
In doing so, she will break the one-term curse that has hung over the seat for the last decade.
Archer was one of the most vocal Liberal critics on a national integrity commission — crossing the floor to vote in favour of an independent member's private bill — and protections for queer youths, which she argued should be included in the government's controversial religious discrimination bill.
Loser: Terri Butler
The Labor MP for the inner-Brisbane seat of Griffith would have been environment minister in the incoming government.
Instead, her seat looks to have fallen to the Greens, with Max Chandler-Mather gaining a 10 per cent swing.
Loser: WA Liberals
Western Australia delivered some of the biggest results for Labor on election night.
One of the biggest victims was Liberal frontbencher Ben Morton, one of Scott Morrison's closest political allies, who suffered a major swing against him.
Labor looks set to also win Cabinet minister Ken Wyatt's seat, former Cabinet minister Christian Porter's seat, Julie Bishop's former seat of Curtin, and the marginal Perth seat of Swan.
