Background
At the previous election, the three-term incumbent centre-right Liberal-National Coalition government, led by Prime Minister Scott Morrison, was defeated by the centre-left Labor Party, led by Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese. Albanese became the new Prime Minister. Morrison resigned as Liberal leader and was replaced by Peter Dutton, who became Opposition Leader, while Barnaby Joyce lost the National Party leadership to David Littleproud in a leadership spill.

Redistribution
There will be a redistribution of the electoral divisions in three states before the election: New South Wales, Victoria and Western Australia. Even though Australia's population has grown, New South Wales and Victoria have too many seats over the quota, so they will both have one less seat each, while Western Australia will gain an extra seat, meaning the House of Representatives will have 150 seats instead of 151. The Northern Territory will also have a redistribution, but there will still be two seats in the Northern Territory.
Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania and the Australian Capital Territory will not undergo a redistribution until after this election.
