Summary
Queenslands Stafford byelection this Saturday is heating up, with Labors Steven Miles facing contempt accusations and LNPs David Crisafulli capitalizing on it. The LNP is launching social media attacks, while Labor candidate Luke Richmond is hitting back. The younger, renter-heavy electorate and historical byelection trends suggest a close race, with Labor needing a significant swing to secure victory. Polls favor the LNP, and Miles trails Crisafulli in approval ratings. The outcome could impact Miles leadership, as the race remains tight.
