Haven't heard much about result so assume Election was called off as Billy Shorten noticed that WA isn't using Daylight Savings.

LS what is the normal swing at a by-election due to the death of sitting member?

We will need to wait until all votes are counted but the swing (two party preferred) currently stands at 6.42%. Historically the average swing in Federal by-elections between 1949 and 2014, resulting from the death of a sitting member is 2.5% (two party preferred). Nevertheless a win is a win!
