"Power is organised chaos"

.
Five days after the Australian Federal Election and still no government. It appears we may have a Hung Parliament. (Curious phrase : hang > suspend > suspense) Some seats are yet to be declared. Counting continues.

What is known is that there are at least 3 or 4 Independents elected to the House of Representatives and the so-called Balance of Power is likely to be with them. (Last night, in a dream, a character declared: "Power is organised chaos".)

After the widely criticised puppetry of the two major parties and the Presidential-style performances of their lead players, along with the almost total disappearance of the others, this present indeterminacy comes as a breeze of unexpected possibility.

Cherchez le candidat (Find the candidate)

The Electoral Officer hasn't seen him.
The voters can't find him.
Can you?



Hang on, what's this?!
