The cutest election ad ever

Only three days left before the Australian federal election and we're still not sure what party will form the new government. But what we know, is who made the most positive ad...

Labor Party ad

Many of you seem tired of the electoral campaign, finding it very negative. You're not alone, it's also the case of 5-year-old Hannah Dastyari and 4-year-old Charlotte Jackson Crosby.

Labor senator Sam Dastyari showed a Liberal ad to his daughter and her friend. They didn't like it, saying it was scary and that the music was bad.

They wanted an ad with more hearts, stars, flowers and a nice song. Who wouldn't, really?

Knowing they were onto something good, the Labor Party crowdfunded the ad, that you can watch here:

It's the least negative ad ever, according to the Labor Party. To be fair though, we need to mention that according to the monitoring firm Equity, 74% of the ads from the Labor Party were negative, in comparison with 68% for the Liberals.
