Marshall left the government building in Adelaide today after being sworn in as the 46th governor of South Australia.
South Australia`s victory over the Liberal Party came to an end on Saturday, when Liberal leader Stephen Marshall (Steven Marshall) was sworn in as South Australia`s 46th governor, the Australian news agency reported.
Smiling Marshall said it was both an honor and an important task to lead South Australia`s development. "this is a great opportunity and I look forward to it," he said Monday as he left (Government House), the government building in Adelaide.
South Australia`s new deputy governor, Chapman (Vickie Chapman), and finance director Lucas (Rob Lucas) were sworn in on the same day. Chapman became the first female deputy governor in South Australia`s history, and Lucas regained control of South Australia`s finances 16 years after the Liberal opposition. Other members of the new governor`s cabinet will be sworn in later this week.
Prior to Monday`s swearing-in, Marshall called on South Australia`s Governor-General, Mr (Hieu Van Le), on Sunday to inform him of the election results. The Liberal Party is expected to win at least 24 seats, with at least one of the two seats still undecided, according to reports, although the exact number of the election results is not yet publicly available. The Liberal Party is expected to win at least one of the two seats that have yet to be decided.
Liberal candidate Sanderson (Rachel Sanderson) and Labour Party Chapley (Jo Chapley) failed in the race for Adelaide`s seat, but pre-election polls showed voters preferred Sanderson, who, if elected, would enter South Australia`s cabinet.
Mr Morson`s election for the (Mawson) seat was a temporary lead by Bergnil (Leon Bignell), the former Labour sports director. If the Labour Party wins this seat, the new South Australia Parliament will consist of 25 Liberal Party members, 19 Labour Party members and 3 independent members.
