Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk is claiming underdog status for Saturday's Queensland election despite some polls suggesting Labor is ahead, while the LNP leader dodges a definitive answer on whether he would govern with help from One Nation.
Ms Palaszczuk took her campaign to the regions today, matching the LNP's $3.6 million for a regional centre of excellence for the resources sector in Mackay.
"I think we're the underdog, I honestly do," she said.
"I am going to work my guts out every day, I am going to three regional cities today."
But back in Brisbane, outspoken backbencher Jo-Ann Miller said the campaigns were not cutting through.
"People are bored with it," Ms Miller said.
"In my electorate people are talking about the Ashes.
"I don't think there's a standout moment where people are saying 'I'm going to vote one way or another because of what the leaders have said'."
She said she "wasn't that confident" Labor would be re-elected.
"I think that we're the underdog," she said.
A new Sky News ReachTel poll has Labor leading on 34 per cent with the LNP on 30.
The poll calculates a two party preferred lead for Labor of 51 per cent to 49.
Labor and the LNP each hold 41 seats in Parliament, and need to win 47 to form majority government.
Work with One Nation? Pass!
Opposition Leader Tim Nicholls avoided giving a definitive answer on whether he would work with One Nation in a 30-second quiz on breakfast radio.
Nova hosts asked Mr Nicholls if he would form government using One Nation support.
"Pass," Mr Nicholls answered.
Mr Nicholls has said in the past he would work with the Parliament voters provided.
Ms Palaszczuk said she would not do deals with One Nation.
"You're not getting a straight answer from Tim Nicholls, you're not getting a straight answer from him," she said.
This afternoon the Opposition Leader will address the Queensland Media Club, in lieu of the traditional leaders' debate.
