2023 Victorian Labor Party leadership election

Following the resignation of Daniel Andrews on the afternoon of 26 August 2023, a meeting of the Labor caucus was scheduled for midday on 27 August. Jacinta Allan, of the Left faction, was expected to be anointed as Andrews' successor.^[14][15] However, it was reported on the day of the meeting that Ben Carroll intended to challenge Allan for the leadership, as the candidate of the Right faction.^[12][16] Both Allan and Carroll initially nominated for leader when the caucus meeting began.^[17][18] As negotiations continued between the Left and Right factions, Labor MPs could be heard singing the club song of the Brisbane Lions, which is set to the tune of La Marseillaise.^[17][19][20] Andrews spoke at the meeting at 1:13pm, saying to Labor MPs that he did not want the party to become like the Victorian Liberals, and asking Carroll to address the party room and say what he ought to. When Carroll began to explain the reasons behind his leadership bid, Andrews again insisted that Carroll needed to say what he ought to. In response, Carroll announced that he supported Allan, and would withdraw his nomination for leader of Victorian Labor.^[21] The party room meeting ultimately elected Allan as leader and Carroll as her deputy, both unopposed.^[17] Allan was sworn in as Victorian premier at 5pm later that day.^[17][18]
