Australian Federal election 2019: Prime Minister Scott Morrison sets May 18 election date

Voters will go to the polls on May 18 to decide which party will form the next federal government.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison visited Government House early this morning to ask Governor-General Sir Peter Cosgrove to trigger an election.

Mr Morrison said the election would offer a "clear choice" for voters between the economy the Coalition had overseen for the last six years versus "Bill Shorten's Labor Party".
