Coalition Primary Vote Drops Below Labour's As Federal Election Looms Large

AUSTRALIA

The Sydney Morning Herald reports that "soaring virus infections have fuelled a backlash against Prime Minister Scott Morrison over his handling of the pandemic, slashing the Coalition’s primary vote from 39% to 34% and vaulting Labor into a strong position ahead of this year’s federal election"

  • Citing the results of the latest Resolve Political Monitor, the newspaper notes that the government's ratings have fallen across all key measures of its performance.
  • Labour's primary vote increased from 32% to 35% since November, providing a solid boost for opposition leader Anthony Albanese.
  • While 38% of respondents picked Scott Morrison as their preferred Prime Minister, he lost the double-digit margin he held previously and leads Mr Albanese by just 7 percentage points.
  • The swing against the Coalition comes as Australia eyes a federal election, due to be held by May.
