{{2016 Australian federal election sidebar}}

The 2016 Australian federal election in the Senate was part of a double dissolution election held on Saturday 2 July to elect all 226 members of the 45th Parliament of Australia, after an extended eight-week official campaign period. It was the first double dissolution election since the 1987 election and the first under a new voting system for the Senate that replaced group voting tickets with optional preferential voting.

The final outcome in the 76-seat Australian Senate took over four weeks to complete despite significant voting changes. Earlier in 2016, legislation changed the Senate voting system from a full-preference single transferable vote with group voting tickets to an optional-preferential single transferable vote.{{cite web |url=http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/federal-election-2016/election-2016-results-senate-count-throws-up-a-wild-mix-as-one-nation-fred-nile-liberal-democrats-vie-for-seats-20160703-gpxc8r.html|title=Election 2016 results: Senate count throws up a wild mix as One Nation, Fred Nile, Liberal Democrats vie for seats |author=Nicole Hasham |publisher=news.com.au |date=3 July 2016|accessdate=3 July 2016 }} The final Senate result was announced on 4 August: Liberal/National Coalition 30 seats (−3), Labor 26 seats (+1), Greens 9 seats (−1), One Nation 4 seats (+4) and Nick Xenophon Team 3 seats (+2). Former broadcaster and founder of the Justice Party Derryn Hinch, won a seat, while Jacqui Lambie, Liberal Democrat David Leyonhjelm and Family First's Bob Day retained their seats. The number of crossbenchers increased by two to a record 20. The Liberal/National Coalition will require at least nine additional votes to reach a Senate majority, an increase of three.{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/AusElectoralCom |title=AEC |publisher=Twitter |date= |accessdate=2016-08-11}}{{cite web|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/federal-election-2016/results/senate/ |title=Federal Election 2016: Senate Results |date=3 July 2016 |accessdate=4 July 2016 |work=Australia Votes |publisher=Australian Broadcasting Corporation}}{{cite web|url=https://blogs.crikey.com.au/pollbludger/2016/07/12/senate-photo-finishes/ |title=Senate photo finishes |publisher=Blogs.crikey.com.au |date=2016-07-12 |accessdate=2016-07-30}}

A number of initially-elected senators were declared ineligible a result of the 2017–18 Australian parliamentary eligibility crisis, and replaced after recounts.

Terms of senators

{{See also|Section_13_of_the_Constitution_of_Australia#Stalled_reform_on_allocation_of_terms|label 1=Stalled reform on allocation of terms}}

The two major parties negotiated to allocate a six-year term to the first elected six of twelve senators in each state, while the last six received a three-year term. This was consistent with the Senate practice on all seven previous occasions. In 1983 the Joint Select Committee on Electoral Reform had unanimously recommended an alternative "recount" method to reflect proportional representation,{{cite web|title=First report - electoral reform |author=Joint Select Committee on Electoral Reform |url=http://www.aph.gov.au/parliamentary_business/committees/house_of_representatives_committees?url=/reports/1983/1983_pp227.pdf |pages=66–7 |publisher=Parliament of Australia |date=13 September 1983}} and the Commonwealth Electoral Act provides for a recount on that basis.{{Cite Legislation AU|Cth|act|cea1918233|Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918|282}} Re-count of Senate votes to determine order of election in other circumstances. This alternative method had been supported by both Labor and the Coalition in two separate, identical, bipartisan senate resolutions, passed in 1998 and 2010.{{cite web |url=http://blogs.abc.net.au/antonygreen/2016/04/how-long-and-short-terms-are-allocated-after-a-double-dissolution.html |title=How long and short terms are allocated after a double dissolution |author=Green, A |author-link=Antony Green |date=25 April 2016 |publisher=ABC.net.au}}{{cite web |url=http://www.aph.gov.au/About_Parliament/Senate/Powers_practice_n_procedures/Odgers_Australian_Senate_Practice/Chapter_04#h23 |title=Division of the Senate following simultaneous general elections |work=Odgers' Australian Senate Practice |edition=14th |publisher=Parliament of Australia |access-date=28 March 2017}}{{cite web |url=http://www.aph.gov.au/About_Parliament/Parliamentary_Departments/Parliamentary_Library/FlagPost/2016/January/Doubledissolution |title=Double dissolution election: implications for the Senate |publisher=Parliament of Australia |date=29 January 2016}} By not adhering to their previous resolutions, Labor and the Coalition each gained one senate seat from 2019.{{cite news |url=https://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-08-12/pauline-hanson-secures-six-years-in-senate/7730280|title=Election 2016: Pauline Hanson secures six-year Senate term, Derryn Hinch has three years until re-election |work=ABC News |date=12 August 2016 |access-date=16 April 2019}}[https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2016/aug/12/senate-terms-derryn-hinch-and-greens-lee-rhiannon-given-three-year-terms Senate terms: Derryn Hinch and Greens' Lee Rhiannon given three years - The Guardian 12 August 2016][http://www.theaustralian.com.au/federal-election-2016/alplnp-deal-to-force-senators-back-to-poll-in-three-years/news-story/f04dae3cfa3f26ae8b28e5c13c232b60 ALP-LNP deal to force senators back to poll in three years: The Australian 13 August 2016][http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/coalition-and-labor-team-up-to-clear-out-crossbench-senators-in-2019-20160812-gqr29k.html Coalition and Labor team up to clear out crossbench senators in 2019: SMH 12 August 2016]{{Cite web |url=http://www.skynews.com.au/news/politics/federal/2016/08/12/coalition-flags-first-elected-senate-plan.html |title=Coalition flags first elected Senate plan: Sky News 12 August 2016 |access-date=12 August 2016 |archive-date=13 August 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160813121527/http://www.skynews.com.au/news/politics/federal/2016/08/12/coalition-flags-first-elected-senate-plan.html |url-status=dead }}[http://www.theaustralian.com.au/national-affairs/cormann-backs-first-elected-plan-to-halve-senate-terms-for-crossbenchers/news-story/78b2d3837377ddf078c61a3ffd6d412f Cormann raises ‘first elected’ plan to halve Senate terms for crossbenchers: The Australian 12 December 2016]

The final Senate result was announced on 4 August. The incumbent Liberal/National Coalition government won 30 seats, a net loss of three − the Coalition lost four Senators, one each from New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia and South Australia, but gained a Senator in Victoria. The Labor opposition won 26 seats, a gain of one − a Senator in Western Australia. The number of crossbenchers increased by two to a record 20. The Liberal/National Coalition would require at least nine additional votes to reach a Senate majority, an increase of three.{{cite web|url=https://results.aec.gov.au/20499/website/SenateStateFirstPrefsByGroup-20499-NAT.htm |title=2016 Federal Election: First preferences by Senate group |date=9 August 2016 |accessdate=10 June 2022 |publisher=Australian Electoral Commission}}
