In the above post's comments, it was mentioned that some of the smaller electoral divisions are hard to see even after opening the map in full.
While I am currently unable to remedy this without creating even more hideously large maps, I can provide the raw data here. Below, each seat is represented by a regular box. There is no option to view this data (as it is presented here) to look at general geographic distribution of voting patterns, but it does represent each seat on an even footing allowing more accurate assessment of the balance of power. That is to say, large seats like O'Connor no longer dwarf small urban seats, so the general colour scheme can be used as a rough guide in determining majorities.
All colours as per the correlating maps.

* N.B. this means that even the seats dating from 1901 have 0.2% of their colour originating from the white underlayer. This has no notable effect on the actual map, however, and is completely lost in the conversion to .jpg
