The main two parties vying for control of the lower house, and thus, the office of premier are the NSW Labor Party and the NSW Coalition (made up of the Liberals and the Nationals). The current Assembly of 93 members comprises 45 from The Coalition, 36 from Labor, three Greens, one from One Nation, six independents and two suspended independents.

They’re a snapshot from a specific moment in time. It’s best to take all pre-election polls with a (massive) grain of salt. Despite this, they are fun to gawk at so let’s take a quick peek. , a market research company has been polling citizens for months in the lead-up to election day. On March 3, it cited a voter intention poll in favour of Labor by a margin of 52.5 per cent to 47.5 per cent.
