PRIME Minister Kevin Rudd faced a hostile reception from refugee advocates as he arrived to cast his vote in east Brisbane.

Mr Rudd got out of his car at St Paul's Anglican Church with wife Therese Rein and, holding up one of his own how-to-vote cards, joked about getting her to vote for the man in the picture - him.

The prime minister, who if the polls are right is set to be removed from government on Saturday night, was set to vote early in the morning but changed his mind in order to do last-minute interviews and campaigning.

But the move backfired when protesters upset about the federal government's so-called Papua New Guinea Solution on asylum seekers hurled abuse at Mr Rudd as he walked to the booths.

Then an Australian Electoral Commission official told the media they weren't allowed to enter the booth to film the prime minister casting his vote because they weren't accredited.

After a brief delay while officials made inquiries, reporters were allowed to enter.
