For the first time ever, the Queensland Greens (Australia) had a candidate in every seat at the State Election on March 21 - all 89 electorates had a Greens candidate to choose.
State-wide, one in twelve Queenslanders (8.2%) voted "1" for the Greens.
Unfortunately the Queensland electoral system means that these voters will remain unrepresented in the Parliament.
In two seats, the Greens candidate received over 20% of the vote - Ronan Lee in Indooroopilly received 25.5% and Larissa Waters in Mount Coot-tha received 22.9%.
