Labor heavyweight Sam Dastyari has declared "unequivocal" support for leader Bill Shorten regardless of Saturday's election result.

Responding to reports he could switch his support to Anthony Albanese in a post-election leadership contest, Senator Dastyari insisted he remained Mr Shorten's biggest supporter.

"My five-year-old daughter has been making TV ads for Bill Shorten," he told reporters in Sydney, arguing the question was meaningless because Labor would win the election.
