Australia’s center-left Labor government is on track to win the May 3 national election, according to polling released just hours before Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was declared the winner of the fourth and final leaders’ debate on Sunday night.

Labor is ahead of the Liberal-National Coalition opposition by 52% to 48%, according to a Newspoll survey published in The Australian on Sunday. It’s maintained the same margin since early April.
