Liberals' One Nation Deal Speculation in SA Election
About this episode
Ashton Hurn, South Australian Liberal leader, faces speculation of a potential preference deal with One Nation ahead of the state election. This raises concerns due to a similar arrangement in Western Australia in 2017, which resulted in a landslide loss for Liberals. Labor has seized on the talk, accusing Liberals of embracing One Nation and alienating centrist voters. Liberal state director Alex Hyde denies a firm commitment to put One Nation last. Experts note the shifted landscape, with One Nation now polling twenty to twenty-five percent in many states and less seen as toxic. Preferences could sway tight races in northern Adelaide suburbs, regional Giles, and outback seats like Flinders and MacKillop. Parties must lodge how-to-vote cards by March sixth, leaving final calculations under wraps.
