Prime Minister Anthony Albanese Wins the First Leaders Debate

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has won the first election debate, according to the Sky News / Daily Telegraph People’s Forum who conducted the debate but not with a majority as 21 per cent of voters remain undecided.

Mr Albanese won the forum, convincing 44 out of the 100 undecided voters that were selected by an independent polling agency.

However, the Prime Minister failed to win over a majority of the crowd, while Mr Dutton secured 35 per cent of voters and 21 per cent remained undecided.

The forum, moderated by Sky News Chief Anchor Kieran Gilbert, is expected to be a turning point in the campaign ahead of the May 3 federal election.
