AUD traders - heads up for May election, update to polls

I posted earlier on the likely date for the May 2019 election in Australia, and a recent poll

ICYMI, link is here

• AUD traders heads up - election looks set for May 18, government behind in the polls

But, in brief:

May 18 seems likely

• recent poll has Govmt on 47%, opposition on 53%

Updating:

• May 18 likely, May 11 also a contender
• Another recent poll has govmt on 48%, opposition on 52% (for this poll, the prior was 46 to 54 in favour of the opposition)

PM Morrison …………….……… and Opposition leader Shorten
