Next Australian federal election

The next Australian federal election will be held on or before 3 August 2019, or possibly earlier if a double dissolution election is called. The incumbent Socialist-Green government will be opposed by the Liberal Party in opposition. The United Democratic Party, the Australian Labor Party and The Australian Whigs will also contest the election.

Background
On 12 May 2019, Youmaton resigned as the Labor Party leader and as the member for Cunningham, triggering a by-election in her seat. 2 days later, she was replaced as leader by MattMonti, who failed to win the resulting by-election, which was won by independent candidate Mad_Bear_O_Melbourne. On 20 May 2019, AnswerMeNow1 and PineappleCrusher_, MPs for Nicholls and Moncrieff respectively, were referred to the High Court due to inactivity. However, the court ruled that neither actually reached the threshold required for judicial intervention due to the fact that 3 votes on consideration in detail were counted as official business, and without the 3 votes in question, both MPs would not have reached the necessary threshold for judicial intervention. On 22 May 2019, in the midst of a controversy over who would take the senate seat of LibertarianLarry after the seat was vacated, Bsharri, MP for Pearce briefly attempted to join the United Australia Party, with no procedure to accept him, however, he was an independent, and left soon after. On 26 May 2019, PineappleCrusher_ was referred once again to the High Court, alongside MP for Sydney, stalintwo. It was ultimately ruled that the pair be expelled from Parliament, triggering by-elections in Moncrieff and Sydney to be held on 15 June 2019, which were won by Liberal candidate TheAudibleAsh and Socialist candidate Horror-HQ. Two political parties also changed their names- the Geoliberal Party of Australia became The Australian Whigs and the Liberal Democratic Party became the Liberal Party of Australia. On 1 June 2019, a referendum on a constitutional amendment to establish a republic was voted on. It successfully recieved the necessary double majority  , with all states voting in favour of the constitutional amendment, with a national vote of 55.8% in favour of the republic. On 2 June 2019, Liberal senator TheMontyJohnson was referred to the High Court for being in breach of the Parliamentary Participation (Overhaul) Act 2019. Zhukov236, Socialist MP for Robertson, was referred the next day under the same circumstances. They both were expelled on 7 June 2019. Zhukov236's expulsion triggered a by-election in his seat of Robertson. On 14 June 2019, fosfossil, Socialist MP for Mayo, was referred to the High Court due to inactivity but ultimately, it was revealed that fosfossil did not reach the threshold for judicial intervention due to ambiguity over what debate meant. However, on 18 June 2019, 3 MPs were referred to the High Court - MP for Mayo fosfossil, yet again, superpacman04, Liberal MP for Hotham, and most notably, the leader of the opposition and the Liberal Party, n4ziporriidge, MP for Brisbane. As a result of this, while porriidge's referral was deemed invalid, superpacman04's and fosfossil's were not, triggering by-elections in Mayo and Hotham. On 1 July 2019, Mad_Bear_O_Melbourne, MP for Cunningham, established the Agrarian Party of Australia. On 13 July 2019, independent MattMonti and superpacman04 won the Mayo and Hotham by-elections. On 14 July 2019, the Revolutionary Socialist Party was registered by Bsharri.
