There's just two days of campaigning left before Queenslanders go to the polls to elect the state's first fixed four year term government.

Looming large is the prospect of a minority government with a swag of marginal north Queensland seats likely to influence who takes power.

It's the nation's first election where COVID-19 and the handling of borders has been the dominant issue.
