Notes

  1. ^ The National Party of Western Australia prior to and subsequent to the election were not in the federal Coalition agreement. Nationals WA MP Tony Crook stated that he was a crossbencher, and has said: "In every news report and press report we see, my number is being allocated in with the Coalition and it shouldn't be".[3] Thus, the party has been counted separately from the Coalition totals.
