Australia's conservative govt revels in 'miracle' re-election as US, Israeli leaders welcome Morrison australiavotes2019

MELBOURNE/SYDNEY - Australia's conservative government celebrated on Sunday its surprise election victory that defied years of unfavourable opinion polls, with US and Israeli leaders welcoming Prime Minister Scott Morrison's return to office.

Morrison told raucously cheering supporters late on Saturday, who just hours earlier had seemed resigned to defeat, that he had always believed in miracles. Morrison, however, cast himself as the candidate who would work for aspirational voters and the tactic seemed to strike a chord. "From the minute the starter's gun was fired in this campaign, we knew we were behind, but we also knew we were in it," Frydenberg said.
