Leaders respond to ‘lies’

The electoral roll is larger than ever, but about 5% of votes, equating to around a million votes, will be informal and discarded in the 2025 election.
The seat of Dickson, held by Coalition leader Peter Dutton, had 4,000 informal votes last election, making these votes significant in the close race.
Debate performances showed Peter Dutton portraying Prime Minister Anthony Albanese as 'loose with the truth,' while Albanese asserted that the previous Coalition government had reduced health spending.
While Dutton performed strongly in debates, Albanese was perceived to maintain a slight edge.
