The Senate is often referred to as "ACT red" due to the color associated with the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), which has a political landscape that leans towards the Australian Labor Party (ALP), often represented by the color red. This designation highlights the political dominance of the ALP in the ACT's representation at the federal level, particularly in the Senate, where they have historically secured a significant number of seats. Additionally, "red" symbolizes the party's values and its commitment to social equity and community welfare.
