Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell has predicted a narrow Labor victory in the Eden-Monaro by-election, which he says will be a "massive relief" for Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese. Polls close in the by-election at 6pm after two months of campaigning with the consensus being the result will come down to the wire.
Mr Clennell said it looks like there could be a two per cent swing to Labor. “If that is the case Anthony Albanese will be mightily relieved give him and his Labor colleagues some encouragement that they are at least in the chance for the next federal election”. “If Anthony Albanese were to lose this seat I think unfortunately down the track he’d come under real pressure in terms of a leadership change”.

aclennell AlboMP Clennell and others on the Panel keep talking about Opposition not having lost by-election in 100 years. But as JoshFrydenberg keeps reminding us (as excuse for every miss), this is a once in a 100 year crisis! Why would this by-election be normal when nothing else is!!? Dopes.
aclennell AlboMP Lets hope not!
aclennell AlboMP Hopefully. Shows voters see through Scotty from marketing.
aclennell AlboMP the media keep saying there’s no alternative to albo and Andrew clennell has mentioned a bunch of labor mps who he thinks could take over but he never mentioned tony Burke’s name why is that because the Murdoch press and the libs are afraid if he ever takes over auspol
