Friday: The best of Guardian Australia’s 2022 federal election coverage
One sleep to go and how are people feeling?
“The mood is tired – and the vibe is tired,” one political staffer said when asked how they were feeling at the end of the gruelling six-week campaign. Scott Morrison and Anthony Albanese spent Friday racing around marginal electorates in multiple states as they made their final pitches to voters. The Australian Electoral Commission and the special minister of state also raced to fix a surprising anomaly in the phone voting system for some people isolating with Covid.Morrison spent the day in Western Australia, where Labor is hoping to take several seats from the Coalition.
Albanese undertook a three-state blitz of marginal seats, including the Liberal-held seats of Boothby and Sturt in South Australia and Bass in Tasmania. The Labor leader was expected to visit Victoria on Friday night – probably going to the Liberal-held seat of Chisholm.
