One of the most fun parts of this website in the lead-up to an election is the comments on each seat guide. Every seat guide has its own comment section where you can discuss that electorate and what is going on.
I thought it would be interesting to identify which electorates have the most comments, which gives an insight into which seats are most of interest. A number of these seats are marginal, but it also includes some safe seats where a conversation was sparked for some reason. East Hills is miles ahead in the lead.
- 74 – East Hills
- 29 – Barwon
- 21 – Coogee
- 22 – Goulburn
- 20 – Kiama
- 18 – Drummoyne
- 18 – Epping
- 17 – Castle Hill
- 17 – Holsworthy
- 17 – Lismore
- 17 – Legislative Council
There are also eleven seats where there haven’t been any comments so far: Canterbury, Davidson, Fairfield, Lakemba, Macquarie Fields, Mount Druitt, Swansea, Sydney, The Entrance, Willoughby and Wyong.
Most of these are reasonably safe but there’s a couple of surprises on the list.
