Morgan has unloaded one of its occasional SMS polls on state voting intention nationwide. Full detail is available here, with the topline figures as follows:
New South Wales: The Coalition’s lead is unchanged at 60.5-39.5. The sample in this case was 1084.
Victoria: Labor’s lead narrows from 55.5-44.5 to 53.5-46.5. Sample: 1082.
Queensland: Labor leads 51.5-48.5 after trailing 51-49 last time. Sample: 929.
Western Australia: Labor leads 50.5-49.5, after trailing 51.5-48.5 last time. Sample: 487.
South Australia: The Liberals lead increases from 51-49 to 54-46. The Nick Xenophon Team is included in the primary vote questionnaire for the first time, recording 18% of the vote. Sample: 679.
Tasmania: The Liberals are up two to 44.5%, Labor is down four to 25.5% and the Greens are up 1.5% to 25%. Sample: 369.
Labor leads in 3 States is , interesting?.
The increased sample size of the Tassie figures hasn’t stopped them from being an even bigger load of rubbish than normal (Greens 25? hardly) and Morgan’s interpretation from being even worse.
Mal hasn’t exactly had a brilliant week still leading in three states. Just proves Bill is a liability to labor.
Sample size for Tas is actually 369.
Thanks Kevin.
And Winterfalls clearly gets the prize for heading into orbit somewhere or being a computer commentator – historic State polling figures clearly relevant to performance recently of Mal and Bill.
The figures for last the South Australia election were 47.0% Labor to 53.0% Liberals.
Morgan is really a terrible pollster. Beyond embarrassing that these get published.
Poor Wakefield does not get the point that mal has had shocking news cycle, mass division yet he is still ahead he must be doing something right.
NSW Labor cannot be competitive until robertson is no longer a member of parliament
