Election experts are expecting a record early voter turnout, prompting the Australian Electoral Commission to add more pre-poll booths and officers.

In 2019, more than four million Australians chose to lodge their vote early ahead of Scott Morrison’s miracle election win — a 57% jump on the previous election.

With Covid prompting more people to avoid crowds, it’s expected this year’s pre-poll will be the battleground where trends are set and early winners are called.

So with millions of Aussies hitting their local pre-poll booths from 8am Monday morning, hundreds of News Corp journalists will be there to find out which party will be getting their votes.
