Newspoll
The Australian has the latest Newspoll results.
The poll found the Coalition’s primary vote was at 46 per cent, compared with 38 per cent for Labor.
Overall, the Coalition held a 53 per cent to 47 per cent lead over Labor, the Newspoll found.
Some good news for the Prime Minister and some bad news for the Leader of the Opposition:
The poll shows that almost as many voters are dissatisfied with Mr Latham’s performance as satisfied.
Forty-two per cent of voters questioned said they were satisfied with his performance - a drop of eight percentage points since just before the October 9 election.
The number of dissatisfied voters rose in the same period from 31 per cent to 39 per cent.
Prime Minister John Howard also increased his lead over Mr Latham as preferred prime minister, 57 per cent to 27 per cent.
The number of voters satisfied with Mr Howard’s performance rose four percentage points since just before the election, to 57 per cent, while the number of dissatisfied voters dropped from 41 per cent to 33 per cent.
Over at the mother ship I will update the poll graphs later this week.
