A fundraising blast by Labor shows how the war for votes is heating up online as Australians turn to the internet for help on deciding who to back.
Labor is begging for funds from its supporters so that it can beat the Liberals to the top of Google search results, where it claims the Coalition is running misleading ads attacking its policies.
On Monday, Conservative lobby group Advance Australia agreed to pause an ad campaign that depicted independent candidates David Pocock and Zali Steggall revealing Greens imagery after the commission threatened legal action for allegedly misleading or deceiving voters.The commission had previously said the ads were acceptable but changed its mind, noting in a statement they were displayed very close to pre-poll centres.
Light’s email said the party would use donations to send targeted ads to “persuadable voters in marginal seats”. “It is disappointing that Labor continues to deceive voters and those whom it seeks to raise funds from,” he said, pointing to other Labor ads where remarks from Prime Minister Scott Morrison are taken out of context and “non-existent” cuts to Medicare are claimed.Both major parties are investing heavily in Google search ads, with Google Trends data showing spiking interest in terms like “Labor policies” as the election enters its final days.
Independent ACT Senate candidate David Pocock said Advance Australia should be prosecuted for its ads, which he said had misled and confused some Canberrans into incorrectly believing he had been a Greens member.
