If you are watching the election with glee then you need to read:
- Kevin Bonham who writes semi-regularly on the polls
- Mark the Ballot who is writing almost every day on the polls.
Dutton has been poor and his confidence has been shot. Having to do not one but two backflips can only make the coalition look as though they are not ready for Government.
Trump will have a large influence on this election and this is not good for the LNP. most Aussies do not want a bar of him. However there is a group in the LNP who love him so Dutton has to step very carefully. It is not a coincidence that the trend to the ALP has coincided with Trump's lunacy.
My voting philosophy is very easy. No party should be in power for more than two terms. On this basis I shall be voting ALP this election but LNP next election if the ALP win.
I live in Bennelong and the local member ( Jerome Laxale) is excellent. The LNP candidate has been in the news for the $60k he cannot account for in the last state election when he contested Chris Minns. He has 'volunteers' everywhere and every day. I cannot imagine they would be doing it for nothing either.
Bring on May 3rd!
