The Greens' commissioned poll of 17 hundred [[1,741]] voters in Josh Frydenberg's seat of Kooyong found its candidate, Julian Burnside Q-C has narrowed the gap to Josh Frydenberg .
On a two party preferred basis, Mr Frydenberg has 52 per cent support with Mr Burnside on 48 per cent.
Mr Burnside says the polling reflects what he's hearing at pre-polling locations.
"We've seen from recent polling that Josh Frydenberg's primary vote has crashed by 17 per cent. The people on the ground at the polling stations, the pre-polling stations where I've been in the last couple of weeks, they are really clear this is an election about climate change, they want serious action on climate change and they want a government which behaves properly, they reckon that the way politics works in this country has become dysfunctional and that is true. They want politicians who listen to them rather than listen to their major donors," Mr Burnside said.
The Greens' best chances of picking up additional seats in the House of Representatives are in the Victoran electorates of Kooyong, Higgins and McNamara.
The latest Newspoll points to a Labor victory on Saturday with Labor attracting 51 per cent support compared to the Coalition's 49 per cent on a two party preferred basis.
The Deputy Prime Minister, Michael McCormack, says history shows the pollsters can get it wrong.
"Well John Howard won coming from 58 to 42 behind. Polls mean absolutely diddly squat when you get voters with a ballot paper in their hand and a pencil in their hand in the ballot box on election day," Mr McCormack said.
When asked about the polls, Opposition leader Bill Shorten told reporters that Labor is in a competitive position.
He says only a Labor government will end what he calls the chaos and disunity of the Morrison government.
But Prime Minister Scott Morrison continues to keep the focus on his message - that a Labor government will just mean higher taxes.
