'Informed mail' around party polling suggests Chris Minns will become NSW premier

Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell says the “informed mail” around party polling suggests that NSW Labor leader Chris Minns will be premier of the state next week.

Residents of New South Wales will head to the polls on March 25 to vote in the state election.

“It seems to be a question of whether he will be in minority or majority government barring a last week stuff-up, the likes of which destroyed Michael Daley's tilt at office last time,” Mr Clennell said.

“Chris Minns needs to get through Wednesday’s People's Forum on Sky unscathed.”

New South Wales Premier Dominic Perrottet will go head-to-head with Opposition Leader Chris Minns on Wednesday at the Sky News / The Daily Telegraph People's Forum in the final debate of the 2023 state election campaign.
