Labor’s primary and two-party-preferred voting is sitting exactly where a first-term government would want it
‘The press gallery had a shocker at the last federal election, piling on Anthony Albanese like coyotes to a wounded beast, missing the bigger truth that it was Morrison who was terminal.’‘The press gallery had a shocker at the last federal election, piling on Anthony Albanese like coyotes to a wounded beast, missing the bigger truth that it was Morrison who was terminal.
The new government has worked hard to secure the bi-partisanship necessary to build longstanding reform rather than serve up fodder for the sort of divisive political fights that have characterised so much of our politics over the past decade. We have not been polling voting intention since May, but we have been registering sustained approval of the PM’s performance since the election.
In short, while estimates based on our final poll were close after preferences were allocated, they were further away than we would have liked on the primary vote. Specifically, we had the major parties too high and the independents too low. The two big initiatives from that review – to include the undecided voter in our reporting, so we can see them more clearly, and to establish the Australian Polling Council – both materially contributed to the quality of polling insights in this cycle.
