This year's election will be held on May 21st and many are speculating about the potential result before ballots have even been cast, but that all depends on the vote count and outcome.


Earlier this year, the Australian Electoral commission began contacting about 560 000 people who were potentially not enrolled to vote.

This year's election must be held by May 21st and many are speculating about the potential result before ballots have even been cast.

Some academics are reporting that a hung parliament is possible this year but that all depends on the vote count and outcome.

One possibility is a hung parliament - which is when no party or coalition of parties has a majority in the House of Representatives.
