How your electorate is feeling about the federal election

We’re doing something interesting during the election — tracking how you and your electorate feel. And the results aren’t great so far.

The federal election campaign has not filled voters with joy or optimism.

As Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Labor leader Bill Shorten crisscrossed the country to pitch themselves to Australia, news.com.au was measuring sentiment in each electorate.

By polling voters in the area they live, asking them to rate their feelings as the campaign wages on, we can get a sense of the electoral mood.

Give it a go — put in your electorate and rate your feelings and see how your fellow voters are faring.

It’s not good so far, it seems.

Our sentiment tracker shows 25 per cent of Aussies are worried, 19 per cent are depressed and 27 per cent are indifferent, or “meh”.

Only 6 per cent are stoked with the election campaign so far, 11 per cent are happy and 12 per cent rate themselves as furious.

If you’re unsure about how to vote, take our questionnaire to see which party best represents your views.
