Friday 25 November 2022 10:53 PM Victorian election 2022: Liberal Matthew Guy convinced he can oust Labor ... trends now

Matthew Guy is insisting he can unseat Premier Dan Andrews and record a shock win in today's Victorian election as the Victorian leader was labelled 'a Communist Party stooge' in a bizarre live television interview.

Around a million Victorians will cast their final votes on Saturday as conflicting polls leave the result of Mr Andrews' quest for a third term unclear. 

The day began uncomfortably for the increasingly divisive Mr Andrews, with Howard Lee, a professional Kim Jong-Un impersonator, doing a bizarre live television interview attacking the Victorian premier in his home electorate of Mulgrave.

'I'm standing in the seat of Mulgrave because I figure if Dan Andrews, who is the Chinese communist stooge can stand for re-election, I, too, can directly infiltrate Victoria more effectively if I stand in his own seat of Mulgrave,' Mr Lee said on The Today Show. 

Cost-of-living pressures have been at the forefront of the campaign and each leader's campaigning, while some pundits have predicted Mr Andrews is set to finally face a backlash over his tough Covid lockdowns.

Both leaders posted contrasting final election day messages to social media early on Saturday. 

A grinning Mr Guy hit social media early on election day urging voters to 'vote liberal [and] put Labor last' as Mr Andrews chose instead to post a hand-written pledge to voters.

'It's a beautiful day for a fresh start,' Mr Guy posted, holding a texta-drawn urge for people to 'vote liberal', with a joke that his 'Photoshop broke'.

Mr Andrews posted a photo of four promises in flowing hand-writing - some of which was difficult to read.
