Time for a new thread. Here’s a chart showing state-level swings to Labor as recorded by Newspoll throughout the campaign. Note that the most recent result seems to indicate a mild Coalition recovery in Victoria being offset by worsening results elsewhere.

392,
Combined with the Sunday Telegraph, it is worth its weight in gold to Mike Bailey
Chris B @ 387
Actually the next poll has every chance of being as wrong as all those from the last 12 months. Only Saturday night can tell us what people are thinking.

Probably already noted but Laura Tingle on News Radio confirmed it was the Tory rent-a-crowd cheering on Ratty and booing journos with the temerity to ask questions suitable questions and not the News Corp table.
Spears will have his interview with Rudd at 5pm, time just announced on screen …
This pamphletgate could turn a few newspapers.
William can I humbly suggest opening a new thread? This 50-50 prank is getting out of hand.
So if all the polls come out tomorrow when can we expect news of the results?
Will we hear some tonight on Agenda/Lateline?
Betfair odds have narrowed slightly (ie towards Govt) in the last ten minutes.
Could be anything, but interesting in the light of this Galaxy rumour.
Hopefully the wusses at fairfax… I’m looking at you Andrew Jaspan.
50-50 from Galaxy
409
Glen, you are an evil man.
Glen, do you know that about 50-50, or are you just torturing everyone?
If the Galaxy does have it “too close to call”; then Galaxy is wrong.
My guess is it doesnt, and we’re getting odd rumours: probably still 53.
Predictions for other newspapers tomorrow.
I think the SMH in Sydney will sit on the fence and not pick a side, like they did in 2004
The Government Gazette: another plug for Howard, although reluctantly, and only because Rudd wouldn’t retain AWAs.
50-50 from Galaxy in Menzies
409 Glen
Galaxy were polling in Mitchell when they got 50/50.
Dyno.
It was someones opinion, no basis in fact.
Perhaps a 53 from ACN and Newspoll and a 51 from Galaxy. I could imagine that.
That’s the rumour isn’t it Dyno?
and if the markets firm further this would suggest it is a possibility
Further to me @ 407, can a rumour on PB move Betfair?
Glen, do you have any new information to base that on?
396 BV For the last time there is at present no Galaxy poll. It was a joke.
400 slackboy Yes that’s right, but for commercial reasons, it is very very important to get this one right. Maybe bragging rights for the next election, would be another term to use.
Holy shit! Just got word ACN is 57-43!!
Just scaring Glen. I have no idea
At the very worst Galaxy will be 53. It will be 54plus on the night
Dyno @ 419, I wouldn’t be surprised!
Glen, the thread over at ozelections2007 board quoting the supposed Galaxy poll figures was just deleted by the moderators.
so its not true?
Sorry about that bludgers…. As you were…. Statement of regret etc.
Good one Lefty E
Chris B, Grooski indicated earlier there is a Galaxy and the result will be too close to call. Since then she/he has not posted any further. I have no reason to doubt that.
Perhaps Rudd has been trying to warn us all not to get our hopes up? I dunno…
maybe its a bennelong poll?
Until there’s something to back up the claim, we have to regard it as just rumour or someone’s idea of a joke.
Breaking news!
New Galaxy Poll
60 ALP
40 COALITION
If only it were true LOL
so who started the skuttlebut?
DT is backing Rudd??? Wtf is going on? Next there’ll be dogs and cats getting married and talking rabbits!!! ARRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Just rang Galaxy and they said there is a 50/50 chance that Glen is a cross dresser
The polls have been rock solid all year 55:45. At most they will tighten to 54:46. Stop stressing everyone
Narrow polls tonight/tomorrow would probably be a good thing in some ways for the ALP.
There’s a bit of complacency going around in the electorate. It would be good to stir some people into action, particularly off the back of this race pamphlet saga.
There was always the chance that Howard would get a sympathy vote if it looked like Rudd was going to waltz it in.
Hi all,
Just catching up onthis thread.
Interesting link from Domain.com. I think it is a Deceased Estate up for sales.

I think at 6.30 p.m aedt when the libs have lost all 5 of the act seats
That’ll be some trick seeing as there’s only 4 seats (2 H of R, 2 sen)
Kirribilli ‘for sale’
http://www.theage.com.au/news/federalelection2007/kirribilli-for-sale/2007/11/22/1195321932510.html
It’s made the news!
ALL THE TALK OF “50-50 GALAXY” IS GARBAGE. If youre going to say what you think will happen, please state this. Dont just post “galaxy 50-50″.
Lefty E: Are you sorry but not apologising or what?
Bloody Grooski. He/she started the ‘too close to call’ thing and then left immediately after.
DLP
bit worried about the smell though
11yrs of rattus shite sure is going to leave a pong
437 Misty
“There’s a bit of complacency going around in the electorate.” You have got to be kidding, one word Lindsaygate.
Labor on Betfair now solidly dug in at $1.26. Would take more than $10k to move the price in either direction.
Coalition $4.70. It’s a thinner market, though, so the price could move more readily.
It wouldn’t shock me however if Galaxy is 51:49 and the rest of them are 55:45.
David Briggs isn’t to be trusted!
This election will be a referendum on Glens inability to handle the truth
