Baird and Foley to target Christian vote as NSW election heats up

NSW Premier Mike Baird and Opposition Leader Luke Foley are targeting Christian voters as the March 28 election draws nearer.

The leaders will address the Christian community this evening at Annandale's Village Church in Sydney's inner-west.

Mr Foley will be looking to boost his personal popularity after a poll yesterday found him to be less likeable than the Premier.

Mr Foley lagged Mr Baird on every personality trait except arrogance, where the two tied, the Newspoll found.

A separate survey, also conducted by Newspoll and published on Saturday, found the coalition remains ahead of Labor 54 percent to 46 percent on a two-party-preferred basis.
