The Liberal Party has complained to the electoral commission in a last minute row over corflutes. Victory in today's election will be a battle for either major ...

"It is the height of hypocrisy. The state had stalled. Both Labor and the Coalition must win seats to form a majority government — a hung parliament would force them to negotiate a minority government with the crossbench. The NSWEC would not confirm the specific complaint but said in a statement it "reviews all allegations it becomes aware of in accordance with its Compliance and Enforcement Policy". The Liberals have their own signs that are confusing to the voters — in black, looking like official communications from the NSW Electoral Commission," she said in a statement to the ABC. We've turned that around," he said. "There is no such confusion with our signs that are clearly in campaign colours with our campaign logo and they encourage voters to number every box on the small ballot paper to ensure they don't risk wasting their vote." "Victor, I pay tribute to his career as the Member for Ryde and as a minister," the prime minister said. "The Liberals are too busy fighting each other, and fighting the Nationals, and the Nationals fighting other Nationals, to actually fight for the people of New South Wales." "A voter should not be told that a potentially exhausted vote is a waste," the letter said. The Coalition enters the election with 46 and Labor needs to win nine seats to form a majority — or negotiate with a crossbench likely to be made up of independents, the Greens and One Nation. - The Liberal Party has complained to the electoral commission in a last minute row over corflutes

NSW Election voting day is here - 2hd (2hd)

After months of promises from potential MP's, today the Hunter finally goes to the polls to vote in the NSW Election. The Upper Hunter electorate will be ...

It’s unlikely there will be a result for the Upper Hunter seat tonight with the NSW Electoral Commission confirming they won’t be counting all of the votes from early voting tonight – thousands of people have pre polled but only initial counts of those will be conducted from certain voting centres at the election manager’s office. The Upper Hunter electorate will be one of the closest fights in NSW hanging on a margin of just 0.5 percentage points after the redistribution saw 6500 voters from Lorn, Bolwarra, Largs and Branxton included in the electorate. After months of promises from potential MP’s, today the Hunter finally goes to the polls to vote in the NSW Election.
