The BludgerTrack poll aggregate records a slight move back to the Coalition this week, which is more to do with the reduced impact of last week’s Newspoll outlier than this week’s ReachTEL and Essential Research results, both of which landed right on trend. The Coalition is up 0.7% on the primary vote, 0.4% on two-party preferred and one on the seat projection, that being in Tasmania, where the Liberals scored strongly in the unpublished ReachTEL breakdown. No new figures for the leadership ratings this week.
So Abbott’s net-sat is -24. This is a dismal performance, though far from his worst.
steve777 – I’m pretty sure Xenophon has indicated he wants the proposal delayed till next year. Presumably this means he would vote against the change this week.
Following is the first comment on the latest Ozzie’s Newspoll commentary…
From a nitwit named Ryan:
“Means nothing, it will mean something in around 2 years time. Shorten is no better option unfortunately, Shorten is someone who never comes out with any ideas on how to fix or improve anything, at least this Gov has ideas even if some are ridiclous”
Now, it might seem “ridiclous” (I strenuously doubt this is a typo) to Ryan, Murdoch News subscriber, but this is the ignorance you overtly well educated and not un-intellegent bludgers are up against.
DoG have mercy on your collective soul.
