The Greens and the Palmer United Party (PUP) have emerged as the big winners after Western Australia's Senate election re-run.
On projected results the Greens have picked up a 6.7 per cent swing, which would ensure Scott Ludlam retains his Senate seat.
PUP also looks to have picked up a seat with a popular vote of about 7 per cent.
The projected data from the ABC's election analyst Antony Green showed the Liberals and the ALP had falls of 5.6 and 5 per cent respectively.
"The overall balance between the two parties, it looks like it's going to be exactly the same as it was last September," he said.
The Liberals appear to have secured two seats with Labor reduced to one.
Mr Green said it appeared swings away from the two major parties had transferred to the Greens and PUP.
The outcome for the sixth seat remains unclear and the Australian Electoral Commission says it may be weeks before the final results are known.
