Brisbane Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner will be re-elected, with Labor’s Tracey Price running a distant second and the Greens’ Jonathan Sriranganathan third.
With 23 per cent of the vote counted, Schrinner has secured almost 47 per cent for the LNP, ahead of Price on 26 per cent. That means that even if Green preferences are distributed from Sriranganathan it will not push Price into the lead. The count is still early across the wards, with the LNP so far ahead in 17, Labor ahead in five, and the Greens ahead in two, with the minor party set to pick up Paddington and add to its numbers in City Hall.
