Newspoll: Labor suffers support slip in Australia’s biggest States

Federal Labor’s polling slide is worsening, with the Government suffering major dents to support in Australia’s two biggest States, the latest Newspoll analysis shows.

Published in The ***********, the new survey results show the race tightening for Anthony Albanese across the country, including in New South Wales and Victoria, where Labor’s primary support has dropped to 30 per cent and 31 per cent respectively.

While the Coalition has maintained its lead in NSW on two-party preferred vote, 51 per cent to Labor’s 49 per cent, it was a two-point drop in the Government’s support in Victoria sparking fears the Government is losing in the progressive heartland with Labor’s support dropped to 52 per cent over the Coalition’s 48 per cent.

Both States, the two largest by Parliamentary seats, recorded a shift towards others and independents away from the two major parties.

The analysis, of polls taken between July and September, show the nation’s indecision has settled in, after three consecutive surveys showing the two-party preferred rating had narrowed to 50 per cent for both Labor and the Coalition.

Peter Dutton’s Coalition has maintained its dominant lead in Queensland, holding the State by eight points over Labor, while Anthony Albanese has held the must-win State of WA by four points.

The support in WA and South Australia stems from Labor’s primary vote holding up — both State’s the Government recorded a steady vote of 36 per cent.

Both Mr Albanese and Mr Dutton recorded negative approval ratings — ****** nine and ****** 12 respectively — while the Prime Minister held the title of preferred national leader by eight points.

But the Opposition Leader narrowly won the preferred Prime MInister rating amongs 50 to 64-year-olds in a sign of the electorate’s shifting support.
