A new poll: Prime Minister Scott Morrison`s approval rating hit a new high
The prime minister`s approval rating reached a new high in the final week of the two-party by-election campaign for Eden-Monaro federal seats in nsw Unionparty continued to lead labour nationwide.
An exclusive Newspoll poll for the Australian newspaper found that popular support for the prime minister continued to grow.
Yet government have yet to receive any significant election support gains, Unionparty`s preferred voting rate remains unchanged at 42%, while Unionparty`s support rate remains unchanged at 51-49 in the bipartisan choice. Before the poll, the victorian labour party improperly recruited party members and the new state labour party councillor involved in the chinese spy scandal shocked the party`s branches in both states.
But the federal labor party seems to have leave away from any consequences, raising its preferred vote to 35%.
The dominance of Mr. Morrison ` s approval rating remains unchanged, and the Prime Minister ` s highest net approval rating has reached his highest point since taking office in August 2018.
His acceptance as a leader, with satisfaction rising by 2 percentage points to 68 per cent, and dissatisfaction falling by 2 percentage points to 27 per cent, confirmed the trend of popular support among liberal and labour voters.
Mr Morrison`s approval rating has reached its highest level since mr rudd`s early days as prime minister. Since Newspoll began in the mid-1980s, no other leader has received this level of support on such a sustained basis.
Mr Morrison also raised his approval rating Anthony Albanese to 58% compared with opposition party leaders, while Labour leaders remained at 26%. Sixteen percent of voters did not support either.
This marks a dramatic reversal of Mr Morrison`s political fate since the outbreak of Coronavirus. After the summer fires, he was accused of mishandling the mountain-fire crisis, when mr Morrison fell behind the labour leader for the first time in his choice of prime minister, and many in the party feared that his authority as leader would not be restored. Mr Albanese, on the other hand, did not appear to have been affected by the labour scandal —— last week he said he would not support a plan to restore national energy guarantee or clean energy goals, signalling a shift in labour`s climate and energy policies.
His personal` personal approval ratings rose by a percentage point to 42%, offset by a two-point rise in dissatisfaction, but mr Albanese`s net approval rating remains positive.
But a large number of voters have yet to judge Labour leaders, and 16% have not said anything when asked whether they are satisfied with the performance of Labour leaders; by contrast ,5% have refused to take a stand on Morrison performance as prime minister. The latest survey, conducted between Wednesday and Saturday, covers the past three weeks.
The poll found that the green party`s basic support rate fell by a point to 11%, reflecting the continued movement of left-wing votes between labour and the green party.
The Pauline Hanson`s one-country party (One Nation) fell by a percentage point to 3 per cent, making the right-wing party in queensland less popular than its federal election results.
The poll surveyed 1521 voters in the states and territories.
