Coalition confront the prospect of worst election result in 80 years

The Coalition is on track for its worst-ever result at a federal election after last Saturday's crushing loss to Labor. Peter Dutton lost his seat leaving the Liberal party having to select a successor.

Key Points

• Anthony Albanese has secured a second term as Prime Minister, with his party gaining at least a dozen seats to form the biggest majority in more than a decade.
• The Liberal Party was cleared out of the cities, and failed to get any traction in the outer suburban areas it was targeting.
• The next leader of the Coalition to be chosen in a Liberal party room meeting.
