With polling and betting markets missing the mark, experts are increasingly turning to social media to judge voter sentiment on a larger scale.

missing the mark, experts are increasingly turning to social media to judge voter sentiment on a larger scale.Mr Morrison's own Facebook page attracted 25 per cent more interactions - reactions, comments and shares - than Bill Shorten's, while the Liberal Party's central Facebook page had almost double the levels of engagement its parallel Labor account had.

"Looking at the comments - and further systemic analysis is needed - Scott Morrison's Facebook comments look quite heavily moderated; it looks unnatural in its positivity. It's also interesting to see 'Scott Morrison' replying actively in the comments," the Melbourne University associate professor said.

"When Scott Morrison talks about quiet Australians, I think he has a significant point. Online, quiet Australians are either lurkers - who observe but do not comment - or are much more likely to comment in 'safe' online third spaces such as a parenting groups or sports forums: non-political online communities, where political talk emerges.

Donald Trump no 'dope', it seems, as refugee deal puts heat on Scott MorrisonHe declared the refugee swap agreed by Malcolm Turnbull and Barack Obama a stupid deal. But the revelation that two alleged murderers were settled in Australia shows Donald Trump may have had the last laugh. ABC does a 180ᵒ turnaround from its standard position of acceptance for all refugees & encouragement of open borders, simply to own Morrison & the govt. Hypocritical. The USA has no active battleships so they literally can't have deployed any, please issue a correction. We know of just 2 of these people. Trump didn't take in hundreds of people just to get rid of 2. There must be a lot more we took in. Who are they and *where* are they? SlowMo & Dutton have a lot to answer.

He's an imbecile. ausvotes Linking Keating with Trump just evidences how ignorant you can get when you are out of politics for 10 years. Seriously Mr Downer?
