Good morning. I'm Thomas Morgan here with a special Sunday edition of NewsMail, as voters and political leaders come to terms with a dramatic election result.

Anthony Albanese and Labor have won a historic landslide election victory. Massive swings across the country saw the Coalition routed. Peter Dutton lost his seat and the search now on within a decimated opposition for a new Liberal leader. The Greens lost seats as well, while the teal independents held their ground.

First and foremost, you can keep up to date with the latest developments on today's politics live blog.

A triumphant Anthony Albanese last night took to the stage to hail "a majority Labor government", as the party increased its mandate in parliament. It took just over two hours for Antony Green to call the result, with swings toward Labor in each and every state and territory. As Mr Albanese basked in the election victory, a shattered Coalition lost its leader. 

• As of 7am AEST, the ABC is projecting Labor has secured 85 seats amid a crash in the Coalition's vote. The ALP won the two-party preferred contest 55 per cent to 45. We're updating our federal election results page with the latest from the AEC count. If you need to get up to speed, here's a 2-minute video recap▶️ or a 4-minute read of last night's results.
• Labor victorious: In his victory speech ▶️ the prime minister said voters "had chosen to face global challenges the Australian way". Last night's Labor victory looks set to be bigger than the 2007 Ruddslide and potentially its largest majority in history. It added another seat in WA and held on to key seats in the NT.
• Coalition wipe-out: On the other end of the Mackerras pendulum, the Liberals had one of their worst results ever. The biggest casualty was Liberal leader Peter Dutton, who lost his seat of Dickson and conceded defeat. He addressed the faithful in Brisbane last night ▶️ and took responsibility for the loss. The Liberal Party now appears to have no seats in metropolitan Melbourne and has been wiped out in Tasmania.
• The teal independents have been re-elected, but the Greens lost prized seats in Brisbane. Greens leader Adam Bandt is also facing a nail-biter in his seat of Melbourne, but he says the party has succeeded by having "kept Dutton out". Meanwhile, a new independent could also join David Pocock in representing the ACT.

How Labor carved a path to a landslide victory: Move over Kevin Rudd and even Bob Hawke — Labor is likely to have more seats after last night than at any point in its history. The Albanese campaign outperformed the pundits and the polls' expectations, so here's a look at how that happened.

Analysis by Laura Tingle: Last night's story was a shambolic Coalition campaign and its disastrous election result. But there's a bigger lesson to be learnt in the fact it was beat by a hopeful campaign message from Labor and Anthony Albanese. This gives politics a chance to do something very different.

Albanese triumphant: Labor's campaign was as devastating, driven and determined as the Coalition's was dreadful, deluded and doomed, writes chief digital political correspondent Jacob Greber. The result — Australia has fired Peter Dutton into the Sun, taking much of the Liberal Party and its future with him.

Who is Ali France? The three-time candidate in Dickson will now become a folk hero within Labor after unseating the man who hoped to one day be Liberal leader. She tells us of the tragedies she's experienced and what drove her to dismiss those who said she "didn't have a chance" to beat Peter Dutton.
