Federal government ministers and MPs believe that an election is now unlikely to be held in March, citing factors such as the emergence of the Omicron strain of COVID-19, supply chain problems and a shortage of rapid antigen tests. The government has previously signalled that the Budget will be handed down on 29 March, which would make 7 May the earliest possible date to call an election. There is growing consensus within the Coalition’s ranks that the election will be held on either 14 or 21 May.
