In some ways it kind of makes it worse that we knew a bit about who he was come election time.
Truth be told, Scomo was barely a figure anyone would have recognized until he was suddenly PM. He was there in the shadows but few would have picked him to be our next PM.
The re-election however I get the feeling that was a bit down to people starting to feel the pressure from a slowing economy. With that many were voting to ensure a system they knew even if not ideal. Better the devil you know than to try their hand on an nearly unknown candidate.
I don't really know, there is so much noise in the political space nowadays that it is difficult to get much signal out of it.

- jaimex2 7y agoThis is true, I hate that our election system boils down to just two parties in the end even if we do use preferential voting.
