MELBOURNE, Australia — Australians will go to the polls in May for general elections with high costs of living and a shortage of housing likely weighing against the government as Prime Minister Anthony Albanese ’s center-left Labor Party seeks a second three-year term.
Albanese drove to Governor-General Sam Mostyn’s official residence on Friday to trigger the election and planned to announce the date later at a news conference at Parliament House. The options were to hold the voting on May 3, 10 or 17. Most commentators agreed that the earliest date was the most likely.
Many expect opposition leader Peter Dutton’s conservative coalition to pick up seats in the House of Representatives.
