Geoff Provest won the state seat of Tweed by a massive margin.
NSW Election 2011
Nats cruise to victory
The National Party has scored big wins in the seats of Tweed and Lismore at the NSW State Election, reducing Labor to a shadow of its former self.
A massive 18% swing in the seat of Tweed ensured Sitting National Geoff Provest won more than 60% of the primary vote.
By comparison Labor's Reece Byrnes was the first choice of just 21% of voters.
In the seat of Lismore, which covers Murwillumbah, the swing to sitting member Thomas George was much smaller at 9% but the story for Labor was a miserable one.
Labor candidate Andrew Moy copped a hiding as his party's vote fell to 13%, barely more than half what it received at the previous state election.
Green Susan Stock was a beneficiary with 21% of the vote.
