The pace quickened as New South Wales’ political leaders raced to make as many stops, shake as many hands, and secure as many last-minute votes as possible before today’s state poll.
Before voters go to the polls today for the decisive vote, both Labor leader Chris Minns and Premier Dominic Perrottet were out in different electorates yesterday promoting their policies and promises.
Prior to promoting his domestic manufacturing strategy in the west of the city, Minns started his day at the Sydney markets.
He asserted that “Labor has a good plan to give this state a fresh start.”
The question voters must ask themselves is: “What makes you think that, after 12 years in office, the problems in this state will change if the Liberals are re-elected on Saturday?”
Minns claimed that Labor’s plan to enact a $60 toll cap, $315 in energy rebates for small businesses, and lower energy costs for residents would concentrate on cost of living problems like a “laser beam.”
He also discussed preventing the potential privatisation of services like Sydney Water and keeping important employees in education, healthcare, and justice.
I’m confident that the people of NSW want change because they’re tired of the same policies that have been implemented over the past 12 years, but particularly in the last four.
Although Minns predicted a close election, he has confidence in NSW voters to cast their ballots for change.
Perrottet began on the North Shore in allegedly prestigious seats before travelling to Western Sydney to discuss the West Invest fund, which provides funding for infrastructure and jobs in the region, as evidence that the teal threat is genuine.
“Saturday’s election is a crucial one,” he declared.
The only political parties with a long-term economic strategy to keep NSW going forward are the Liberals and Nationals. To construct the roads, metros, hospitals, schools, and other types of infrastructure that truly improve people’s livelihoods.
Perrottet promoted measures such as the $40 Opal cap, the cashless pokies machine reform, and the kids’ future fund, which offers a $49,000 nest egg based on government and parental donations. He also promoted the $250 energy rebate.
He asserts that he visited every corner of the state to inform electors of the benefits that a Liberal administration will provide.
He declared, “We are not taking any vote for granted.”
While Minns is concentrated on attempting to end the Labor party’s term-limit drought, Perrottet is hoping to secure a fourth term for the Liberals and Nationals.
