A long campaign trail comes to an end today for Australia's political leaders - with the country going to the polls tomorrow.

According to the latest polling numbers, Labor under leader Anthony Albanese, remains in the box seat to form a government, with about 53.6 per cent support.

Scott Morrison's Liberal Party will hope the polls have got it wrong if it's to win another term.
