Mr Power entered the contest with a 6.8 per cent margin after defeating One Nation at the 2017 election.

Mr Power has held the seat since 2015 after being ousted in 2012.

It was the seat for former ALP Premier wayne Goss.

Logan electorate.

At the last election, Liam Jenkinson from the Greens won 4.9 per cent of the primary vote. This time around, in early counting, he won 6 per cent of the primary vote.

Early figures showed Mr Power romping home for his third victory with a significant margin of more than 10 per cent, two-party preferred against One Nation’s Peter Weber, who was on 36 per cent with 30 per cent of the votes counted.

Mr Power said he was passionate about improving the Mt Lindesay Highway and roads around Logan Village, where there have been two road deaths in the past month.

The LNP ran Clinton Pattison, who ran in Algester in 2017, Rankin federally in 2019, and for Logan City Council in March.

Boundary changes meant Tanah Merah and part of Loganholme are in the electorate, even though there is a greater affinity with the Macalister electorate.

The ONP vote failed to hold up in this seat and initial counting suggested a two party-preferred contest with the LNP.

Mr Power promised during his campaign to fix the Mt Lindesay Highway from Stony Camp Road to Chambers Flat Road with construction due to begin early next year.

He also promised to support building Stage 1 of the Second M1.
