Queensland’s controversial former deputy premier Jackie Trad has lost her inner-city seat of South Brisbane in the state election.
With 67 per cent of the vote counted, her Greens challenger Amy MacMahon has picked up 55 per cent of the vote.
Ms MacMahon will join Greens MP Michael Berkman — who has retained his Brisbane seat of Maiwar — as the second Greens representative to join the Queensland Parliament.
ABC chief election analyst Antony Green said Ms Trad cannot win in South Brisbane from second place.
“There’s no way the Greens are going to finish behind Jackie Trad,” he said.
