Sky News host Peta Credlin says it will be “devastating if Labor loses, but disappointing if Labor wins” because of the negligible margin between victory and failure.

Anthony Albanese would have wanted a “stronger result,” she said.

Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell predicted the Liberals would surge ahead as the pre-poll votes came through, even though the Liberals are slightly behind on the two-party preferred vote at present. He said the by-election result will be decided by the remaining pre-polls and postal votes which are yet to be counted. Image: Getty

The public says ' Peta Credlin is an idiot with no idea or credibility, it will be disappointing if she gets anything right because somebody might actually believe her bullshit, the negligible margin between sky and lies'

Are you a news network?

Anything preceded by “Peta Credlin says” is partisan bullshit!

More insight there, from LNP-TV.

Fascinating.....🙄

What a load of rubbish! Is this her non bias balanced view - she has zero credibility!

Deja vu?

Oh how handy for an LNP operative

Gosh imagine if the liberals lose then auspol

STFU Peta NoCredibility!

Worthless comment from a worthless Sky talking head

FatherBob Again who cares what Peta Credlin says, thinks or does. 💁🏼‍♀️

Yeah Cretin that makes sense.

It may be devastating for the LNP if they win because Labor will get a new leader.

FatherBob Dear oh dear

PISS AND WIND

Such a dumb comment and totally butchered try hard argument. If LPA loses, LPA will be devastated. If Labor wins, LPA will be devastated. Fixed it for you Credless. LPA create devastation, so therefore deserve to be devastated. Have fun.

🤣 If Morrison is so popular, why was he too scared to show his face in Eden Monaro?

More Hyper bowl from Cretin

So, what you’re saying is, you were going to bag Labor, whatever happened? Got it.

what are Australians doing about Putin placing bounty's on your soldiers life's

Postal vote huh? .. I smell fraud already. That's what Labour is good at.

She's on the turps again isn't she?

Don't write off the Liberals in Eden-Monaro: Barilaro | Sky News AustraliaNSW Deputy Premier John Barilaro says he's 'not writing off the Liberals' in Eden-Monaro, denying claims he was urging voters to preference Labor before the Liberal candidate. \n\n'I've been telling people to vote one Trevor Hicks. Simple as that,' Mr Barilaro said.\n\n'Our how to vote card has the Liberal Party second. \n\n'It's always been a bellwether seat. They know down here you get stuff done when you're in government and they may experiment with that two years out from a general election.'\n\nMr Barilaro said much of the speculation was likely caused by his long-standing friendship with former member for Eden-Monaro and Labor MP Mike Kelly.\n\n'Just because we come from two different parties, doesn't mean you can't make friends across the political isle,' he said.\n\nWhile a Labor hold would pave the way for Mr Barilaro to run for the seat at the next federal election, the NSW MP said he wasn't sure whether he 'had enough fight' in him for another tilt. \n\n'I've got a four-and-a-half year old who misses dad and that was a big part of the reason I didn't run this time,' he said.\n\nImage: News Corp Australia

I think they will get there.”\n JohnBarilaroMP Fake news... JohnBarilaroMP Isn’t he the bloke that gave his preferences to Labor? JohnBarilaroMP Sky News = Nazi Journalism.
