After campaigning around the country for eight weeks, Malcolm Turnbull will join voters in his eastern Sydney seat to cast his ballot.

Saturday brings to an end the election fight the prime minister called two months ago.

After a fairly relaxed few days, Mr Turnbull will be back on home turf to vote in the electorate of Wentworth.

He has held the seat since 2004 and a redistribution has firmed his standing even more, to a margin of 18.9 per cent.

Mr Turnbull has been sure to use the last week to remind voters about his government's economic plan.
