An exclusive Saturday Telegraph/Galaxy Research poll has revealed just how tight the race for the seat of Bennelong is between star Labor candidate Ms Keneally and Liberal MP Mr Alexander, with the former tennis champ’s primary vote only three percentage points ahead of his television host rival while the two-party preferred vote is on a 50-50 knife-edge.
Dissatisfaction with the Turnbull government, along with Ms Keneally’s personal appeal, has delivered Labor a massive 10 per cent swing in Bennelong since the 2016 federal election, lifting the party’s primary vote from 28.5 per cent to 39 per cent — in arm’s reach of victory.
