NSW voters will head to the polls on May 3 for the 2025 federal election.
Voting centres across the state will open at 8am and close at 6pm.
Elections are often won and lost in marginal seats and NSW has a number of electorates where candidates are running a tight race.
It’s expected to be a tight finish in the key NSW seats of Robertson, Bennelong and Werriwa, which are currently held by Labor MPs. Meanwhile, the Western Sydney seat of Lindsay — currently held by Liberal MP Melissa McIntosh — could see a flip.
Voting is compulsory in Australia and hundreds of polling booths are located across local schools, churches, community halls and public buildings.
