Does anyone feel like this state election is a lot more hotly contested than they have been in the past?
We've had a fully manned early polling booth up for a week and there's been people doggedly handing out how to vote cards and the car park seems to be overrun every day.
We have a few scum bag candidates here in the Great Southern. The LNP candidate is loathsome, as is the one nation candidate but no surprises there I guess.
I had a bit of a grump about the candidate signage a few weeks ago. We have some local regulations limiting political sign placement but apparently the supreme court overruled the ability of local govts to regulate what political / temporary signs you can put on private property so here we are.
LNP guy has a caravan emblazoned with his nonsense parked on the highway.
Also lots of signs on public property but those seem to get taken down within 24 hours or so.
Is there any polling? Are we expecting an easy labor win or not really ?
I have hardly paid attention myself. I see lots of ads on YouTube but that's about it and I ignored them. My early voting place had nobody but it was on a shopping centre so maybe they weren't allowed.
I did see the greens setting up today in the city outside the early voting place that wasn't there last week. Makes sense with all the lunch time voters I guess.
As for polling, I think Antony Green already thinks it's a Labor win but by less than previous years.
Yeah, our early polling place is at a shopping centre. It was a bit excessive this afternoon. Corflutes everywhere.
