(CNN)Australians will head to the polls on May 18, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced Thursday. The vote could deliver the country its seventh leader in just over a decade.
Morrison, a former Tourism Australia director, and his center-right Liberal National Coalition government are seeking re-election on a platform of tax cuts and economic stability.
“At this election there is a clear choice. It is a choice that will determine the economy that Australians live in, not just for the next three years but for the next decade,” he said at a press conference announcing the election.
