    Abstract

    The relationship between campaign fund raising, campaign expenditure and voter support levels for the two major parties, Labor and the Coalition, is explored by means of regression analysis. Results confirm the existence of significant relationships, in particular that, holding constant other influencing factors, the more a party raises and spends during a campaign, the more votes it wins.
