What are your Lib mates getting paid for signage?
I donāt think anyone is going to come out looking like a goose. Itās a very difficult election to read.
Thereās a lot of noise.
reckon ive seen more lib signs this year than any other year in stronghold western suburbs
Well that is cheaper than getting an Uber to do it. Obviously good economic managers.
Skewed polls by partisan media have been shown to influence late swinging and indifferent voters. Itās another campaign tool, this time employed over a period of a couple of weeks leading in. Murfuch.
In my electorate there are householders willing to allow signage on their properties free of charge. The candidates donāt have enough in their campaign funds to pay for the signage.

Not even a close relationship with News Corp co-chairman Lachlan Murdoch and his wife Sarah could save Christopher Doreās career at the company after his alleged drunken behaviour in California last month.
According to sources, senior executives at News Corp had witnessed highly inappropriate, drunken behaviour by Dore, long before his attendance at a party at Laguna Beach which the Guardian understands led to him losing his job.
The alleged drunken behaviour at the WSJ Tech Live event hosted by News Corpās global chief, Robert Thomson, and executives from Murdochās Wall Street Journal, was the last straw, sources told Weekly Beast.
When Dore was editor of the Daily Telegraph in 2016 he attended a New Yearās Eve party, described by former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull in his autobiography A Bigger Picture.
āWe held a New Yearās Eve party at Kirribilli House (at my own expense) and watched the fireworks from the governor generalās lawn ā apart from a tirade of drunken abuse from one of Murdochās editors, it was a congenial evening,ā Turnbull wrote.
Several sources said Dore was the editor in question and he was āincoherently drunkā at the party, which was also attended by the Australianās then editor Paul Whittaker and his wife, and the chairman of News Corpās Herald and Weekly Times group (and Rupert Murdochās niece) Penny Fowler.
It is understood that at least some of the ādrunken abuseā Dore meted out was directed at the prime minister himself, at the gathering attended by friends, media executives, several members of Turnbullās ministry and staff.
Despite this allegedly inappropriate drunken behaviour at the governor generalās official Sydney residence being apparently well known at Holt Street, Dore was promoted to editor-in-chief of the national broadsheet in 2018, the fourth Murdoch masthead he edited in his 31-year career.
The company says that Dore quit due to ill health. Two days after the shock announcement editor Michelle Gunn told staff she understood they were āfeeling heavy of heartā after Dore left due to āpersonal health issuesā.
āChris wants you all to know that he is going to be OK,ā Gunn said. āAnd he knows that you all join me in sending him every good wish.ā
Nice to know that such behaviour is only āallegedly inappropriateā.
LOL donāt have any, they all hate Libs as much as I hate Dan.
ā ā ā ā ā ā ā , the media are giving Dan a kicking.
sigh
Itās not the measure of the guy, but geez Guy struggles with the most softball of questions.
Andrews was roundly criticised for voting early. Iām sure right now heās being criticised for choosing toast over weet bix and imported bean coffee ground at home over not supporting small business with a Magic from the local cafĆ© in the Lifestyle section.
Because heās scared to be seen in his own electorate.
Justā¦the level of utter tosh thatās like acid off a duckās back these days.
Like he wonāt be there today anyway.
Like he wouldnāt have been there during the last week.
Not that it matters in any way at all, but if forced to hold a view then Iād say itās a good thing for a leader to be shown voting early.
Something like a third of voters do now?
We donāt all have the privilege of Saturdays off.
I wonder if he was told to vote early as the hate campaign has been really strong and there may have been credible threats made against him?
Hadnāt considered that, but cookers gonna cook.
Probably a smart call.
Whenās the earliest they can call this?
I donāt believe the trashy articles, ALP with an easy win.
Is it over yet?
Stabby in the backseat yelling āAre we there yet?ā
āYes dear, just a few more minutesā
