Australians look set to dump Scott Morrison’s government and elect Labor’s Anthony Albanese as their new prime minister, according to multiple election eve opinion polls, however the rise of independent and minor party candidates means there may not be a clear result by the end of Saturday.
Following six weeks on the hustings, both leaders will begin election day with a last-minute campaign stop in Melbourne. On Friday, the two leaders made their final pitch to voters, with Albanese pledging to be a leader with “integrity” and Morrison warning of the risk of change.
