This one's ours: on Saturday 28 November, DOD is hosting a casual cross-party watch party for the Victorian state election at Inspire9 in Richmond.1 Results on the big screen, people from every party in the room.

  • Election night is usually spent in separate rooms; this one isn't.1
  • It's a relaxed get-together with the count on in the background, not a campaign event.
