Does Peter Dutton believe in miracles?

I feel confident, I feel good about where our candidates are and we have selected some amazing people, and we have got a record number of doors knocked in electorates, in many cases and this is evidenced in the research that we have done, our candidates have got a higher name ID than some lazy sitting Labor members. (you could say that about independents as well)

They have done more work, they’re more connected with their local electorates and that’s why I think you’ll see a lot of surprises seat by seat on Saturday night because there is an enormous amount of work that’s been undertaken on the ground and I have no doubt that – there are a lot of Australians who are saying – I haven’t voted Liberal before, but I’m going to vote for Liberal at this election because I have just had enough of not being able to afford to pay my bills. That’s the reality of life. I think that will be one of the issues obviously that decides the election.

There is a lot about the Coalition polling and you can tell who has been talking to Coalition sources because they use phrases like their polling ‘gets down under it’ and ‘really narrows down the vote’.

But for the polling to be this wrong, it would have to be wrong on primary and 2PP vote, and preferences and policy and leader’s popularity/unpopularity and trend. That has never happened before.
