Who leads Australia isn’t decided by one, big popular vote. It’s countless close contests across the country that eventually determine who can form government, and who will be the Prime Minister. This week, we’re looking at the players in Australia’s 2025 federal election – who is going to be a big deal, what’s going on with minor parties, what electorates matter, and will the teal wave continue or be washed out to sea?
Demographer with the ANU Liz Allen breaks down the biggest players this election, the voters, whilst SBS Chief Political Reporter Anna Henderson maps out what a path to victory looks like for both major parties.
