The Coalition won the 2013 federal election by 53.5 per cent to the Australian Labor Party’s 46.5 per cent on a two-party preferred basis, and public opinion polls suggest that the 56-day double-dissolution election on 2 July 2016 will be very close. The Opposition will require a swing of more than four per cent to win the election and oust a federal government after just one term for the first time since 1931.
