AAP has an update on how some of Anthony Albanese’s appearances have gone:

The prime minister has been heckled by another candidate on his whistle-stop tour of early voting booths.

Emanie Darwiche, who is the NSW Senate candidate for the Australia’s Voice party, headed by ex-Labor senator Fatima Payman, berated Anthony Albanese on Monday as he visited a pre-polling centre in the western Sydney suburb of Padstow.

“You are complicit in genocide,” she said.

“You are complicit in every Australian struggling to make ends meet.”

Many locals have become frustrated with both the federal government and the opposition over their response to Israel’s violence in Gaza, prompting them to turn against the major parties in favour of a candidate who advocates for the rights of Palestinians.

Corflutes of independent candidates like Ziad Basyouny dotted the nearby streets as one driver yelled “free Palestine”.

The issue prompted Senator Payman to leave Labor in July and later form Australia’s Voice.

Its policies are broadly progressive, with its candidates calling for action on property investors’ tax incentives, supermarket divestiture and action to “end the genocide” in Gaza.

“I wanted to hold the big man accountable for his complicity in genocide,” Ms Darwiche later said in a video on her social media.

The prime minister was met with a friendlier reception when he toured a pre-polling booth in Eastwood, with locals lining up to catch a glimpse.

But even there, in the hotly contested marginal seat of Bennelong, the Liberal Party signs were unavoidable.

Earlier in the day he announced a $20 million commitment to establish a women and children’s trauma recovery centre in the NSW Central Coast seat of Robertson, held by Labor on a 2.2 per cent margin.

The electorate has been a bellwether since 1983, having voted for the government for the past 15 elections.
