The seat of Murray has been hotly-contested and it all comes down to Saturday's vote when residents will have their say on who they want to represent them at a state level.
As it stands, the race has many solid candidates, but it appears current Member for Murray Austin Evans and Shooters, Fishers and Farmers' Helen Dalton are the two front runners.
Thousands upon thousands has been spent on advertising by the parties in this election and residents have been bombarded with messages all the way around.

Many have already chosen to vote, heading to pre-poll over the last week.
With the clock ticking down to the final vote and the campaigning begins to reach a fever pitch, each of the candidates have given their final pitch.
Country Labor's Alan Purtill said if residents were "unhappy" it was time to change their vote, saying he would provide the answers they were after. Mrs Dalton said should she come out on top, she would have the balance of power.
I will definitely not form a Coalition government with Labor or the Liberals and Nationals," she said. "Instead, I'll stay on the crossbench."
Mr Evans believes his track record since his election in the October, 2016 byelection speaks for itself.
"In just 16 months we've been able to make important inroads to ensure projects in Leeton are a priority," he said.
