  • Die Parlamentswahl in Australien 1998 fand am 3. Oktober 1998 statt. Es war die Wahl zum 39. australischen Parlament. Von den beiden Parlamentskammern wurde das Repräsentantenhaus (Unterhaus) vollständig und der Senat (Oberhaus) teilweise neu gewählt. Obwohl die regierende Koalition aus Liberal Party und National Party große Stimmenverluste hinnehmen musste, konnte sie immer noch mit einer absoluten Mehrheit weiterregieren. Die rechtspopulistische Partei One Nation, welche erstmals zur nationalen Parlamentswahl antrat, erreichte aus dem Stand 8 bis 9 Prozent der Stimmen. (de)
  • Les élections fédérales australiennes de 1998 (en anglais : Australian federal election, 1998) se tiennent le 3 octobre 1998, afin d'élire les 148 représentants et 40 sénateurs sur 76 de la 39e législature du Parlement d'Australie. Le scrutin permet au Premier ministre libéral John Howard d'engager un deuxième mandat à la tête du gouvernement fédéral, la Coalition ayant confirmé sa majorité absolue. Le Parti travailliste australien de Kim Beazley est ainsi maintenu dans l'opposition alors qu'il engrange plus de suffrages que ses concurrents de centre droit. Il réalise d'ailleurs la meilleure progression électorale d'un parti ayant perdu les précédentes élections législatives et perd le scrutin avec la plus forte avance en voix sur le vainqueur. (fr)
