Saturday’s West Australian provided Westpoll (a.k.a. Patterson Market Research) results from surveys of 200 respondents in four well-chosen marginal seats, namely the regional battlegrounds of Bunbury and Albany and the marginal suburban seats of Joondalup and Riverton. The Gallop government would no doubt have been very interested to learn that the Liberals will win huge primary vote majorities in all four. Seat-by-seat breakdowns as follows:
| ALP | LIB | GRN | |
| Bunbury (0.2%) | 36 | 55 | 8 |
| Albany (3.7%) | 37 | 56 | 1 |
| Riverton (3.1%) | 39 | 54 | 4 |
| Joondalup (3.1%) | 38 | 53 | 5 |
