Newspoll: 54 to 46 in Labor’s favour
Dennis Shanahan in today’s Oz reported the Newspoll findings from last weekend. The headline message is unchanged from the previous Newspoll: a predicted national two-party preferred vote of 54 per cent for Labor compared with 46 per cent for the Coalition — a landslide to Labor.
THE Coalition continues to be battered by its industrial relations changes, with support from voters well down and Labor retaining its election-winning position.
The national primary vote predications, had an election been held last weekend, were Labor on 42 per cent and the Coalition on 38 per cent.
In the attitudinal polling, the big change was Beazley’s dissatisfaction rate, which fell from 51 per cent to 44 per cent over the fortnight. Last weekend, Beazley’s dissatisfaction rate was lower than Howard’s at 48 per cent. This was the first time Beazley was lower than Howard for over 5 months.
