The most stable electoral changes take time to build. The ones that occur suddenly tend to fade away just as suddenly - ala Palmer United. They aren't too far off their 2010 result and there's no reason to suspect they can't get up there again and higher.
To repeat, I'm not saying they're going to sweep to power any time soon. I am saying they'll probably increase their presence next federal election - a.) they stand a good chance of winning 2-3 more HoR seats next time based on the their respective primary votes yesterday, and b.) their Senate representation isn't likely to decrease much further in the medium term, as their SA loss was the result of the anomalous NXT surge in that state.
