00:00Things today at the polling booths, how receptive have people been?
00:04Well, other than the very cold early morning start, the people have been delightful and charming.
00:10And the other nice part about democracy is the very positive interaction between the other spookers from Labor and from the Nationals and from the Greens.
00:19That's been a real pleasure to meet other people who are keen to have a point of view and give up their time to interact and talk to the voting public.
00:29The people themselves, a lot of people are coming in having already researched what they want to do.
00:34And so the information I have for Kate Hook isn't often necessary.
00:38They haven't really thought about it and they have decided where their vote will go.
00:43That's been one of the pressures as well.
00:45And do you think Calair will see a change in this election?
00:50Anecdotally, just from people coming in and out.
00:54And Betfair says probably correctly that the Nationals look like they've probably got an advantage.
01:02But they may not.
01:03The preference system in Australia is so wonderful that it makes it in doubt to the end, which is just lovely.
01:10It's just lovely.
