SYDNEY - The Australian Labor Party in New South Wales claimed power in a state election on Saturday, with voters backing the centre-left party’s pledges on anti-privatisation and cost of living relief.
The win marks further endorsement of the party of Australia’s Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, who joined his state counterpart Chris Minns - who is set to become New South Wales’ 47th premier - in Sydney on polling day. Labor’s win in New South Wales means the party now governs at state and federal level across Australia’s mainland, leaving island state Tasmania as the conservative outlier.
“The people of New South Wales voted to put in a government that would put people at the heart of all decision-making”.
