May 23 (Reuters) - Australian shares were expected to open lower on Monday, following the Labor Party's election victory after nearly a decade out of power, while Wall Street's uneven finish last week in a volatile session may impact domestic technology stocks. The local share price index futures fell 0.2%, a 16.6-point discount to the underlying S&P/ASX 200 index close. The benchmark rose 1.2% on Friday. New Zealand's benchmark S&P/NZX 50 index was up 0.4% by 2233 GMT.
