In the wake of the chaos, Labor Party leader Bill Shorten called on the prime minister to resign. RelatedEven if Turnbull’s party wins, the country could potentially end up with yet another new prime minister. The country was facing the prospect of a dreaded hung parliament after Saturday’s elections, which failed to deliver an immediate victor. With the possibility of a hung parliament looming, Turnbull and Shorten both said they had contacted the five independent lawmakers who could make up a minority government if needed. Despite a strong swing against his coalition, Turnbull insisted he would still be able to form a majority government.
