SYDNEY - Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s re-election prospects got a lift on Saturday when Australia’s most populous state, New South Wales , returned his ruling Liberal Party to power.
Speaking shortly after victory was confirmed, Morrison said the victory in NSW foreshadowed a federal victory in May. While the Australian economy is the envy of many, NSW’s finances are in even better shape. Unemployment in NSW is at a near record low, below even the national level which on Thursday was pegged at 4.9 percent.
