Turnbull warning on tight poll

As the latest Newspoll puts Labor and the coalition on 50-50 in two-party terms, the prime minister has warned of chaos in a minority government.

Malcolm Turnbull has warned against another minority government as the latest Newspoll puts the coalition and Labor neck-and-neck.

The prime minister told reporters in Melbourne a vote for Labor, the Greens or independents risked the "chaos and instability" of the Gillard government.

"The only way to be sure that there will be a stable federal government committed to a national economic plan that will deliver stronger economic growth and more and better jobs is to vote for the coalition," Mr Turnbull said.
