About 80% of Victorian Labor’s election promises that target a single seat are being directed to electorates the party already holds in what has been described as an attempt to “safeguard” seats as polls tighten.
Guardian Australia’s analysis of election promises up to 20 November shows almost $44.2bn has been pledged by the major parties, with the opposition promising to spend $34bn – more than triple the Labor government’s commitments, which total $10.2bn.
