Australia's opposition Labor Party has claimed victory
in the national elections, ending 11 years of John Howard's Conservative
government, the party's deputy leader has said.
Julia Gillard told Australian television: "On
the numbers we are seeing tonight Labor is going to form a government."
A Sky News Australia exit poll predicted that Prime Minister
John Howard has lost his bid for a fifth successive term in power.

The Conservative leader was trailing in opinion polls behind
opposition Labor leader Kevin Rudd.
The Sky exit poll of 31 marginal government seats forecast a
30-seat gain for Rudd, more than enough for him to form a Government.
The poll of 2,787 voters by Auspoll gave Labor 53% of the vote
and the ruling Liberal party 47%.
