Former Victorian Premier Jeff Kennett believes apathy will play a big role in the upcoming election.

Speaking to Ross Greenwood on the 3AW Money News program, Mr Kennett said Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull is capable of making up any ground he’s lost.

‘Theres a lot of apathy going into this election, particularly among younger people,’ Mr Kennett said.

‘If one side or the other does not make a huge mistake, that apathy will normally favour the incumbent.

‘Therefore I still expect the government to win.’
