Key Facts
Who Gets to Be the Boss?
In Western Australia, grown-ups get to vote for the people who will be in charge of their state for the next four years. It's like picking the captains for your sports team! In 2025, everyone got to vote for new members of the Parliament, which is like the big meeting room where important decisions are made.
All the seats in the two main rooms, the Legislative Assembly and the Legislative Council, were up for grabs!
Team Labor's Big Win!
The Labor team, led by Premier Roger Cook, had a really, really good day! They won the election for the third time in a row, which is a super big deal. It means lots of people trusted them to do a good job. They won so many seats that it was called a 'landslide victory', like winning a race by a mile! The Liberal and National teams were also trying their best to win votes.
Counting All the Votes!
After everyone voted, the counting began! In the big room called the Legislative Assembly, there are 59 seats. The Labor team won 46 of them!
The Liberal team got 7 seats, and the National team got 6. In the other room, the Legislative Council, Labor won 16 seats, the Liberals got 10, and the Nationals got 2. Even some smaller teams like the Greens, One Nation, and Legalise Cannabis got a few seats!
What Does This Mean for WA?
This election helps decide how Western Australia will be run. The people who win get to make rules about things like schools, hospitals, and roads. It's important because it shows what the people of Western Australia want for their future. The Labor team will continue to lead, making decisions for the next four years based on the votes they received.
