The Country Liberal Party has urged Northern Territory voters to put Labor as their last preference in the upcoming election as they fight to upturn Labor's majority seat. Fellow conservative NT party Territory Alliance is yet to announce their preferences however a number of candidates indicated they would also preference Labor last.
The conservative vote was previously split as the CLP preferenced Labor over Territory Alliance in the February by-election, however CLP President Rob Kelly recently issued a statement which backflipped on previous preferences, saying the party was "fighting to win majority government". "We are advocating that voters put Labor last in every seat," he said. Labor would have to lose four seats in order to lose its majority government.
The people who vote Labor, are inclined to vote Labor because its a tradition for one reason or another. When explaining labor policy to these voters, they feel stupid voting labor, but still vote Labor anyway.

NSW Labor call for mandatory masks | Sky News AustraliaThe New South Wales Labor Party has criticised the state government for inconsistent messaging on masks and is calling to make them mandatory in some settings.\n\nOpposition leader Jodi McKay said “the only reason the masks are not mandatory is because they do not have a stockpile of masks to get us through”.\n\n“And that is hugely concerning.”\n\nThe government has strongly recommended and encouraged citizens to wear masks while using public transport and when it is impossible to socially distance but stopped short of making them compulsory. \n Oh shut up. The State Government takes advice from experts, not you. No deal, masks cause me to suffer bad headaches and make me sick like sea sickness, can't wear them, I tried. Ill take my chances and just use other precautions. Is there anyone more irrelevant than JodiMcKayMP
