Labor’s two-party lead in the federal Newspoll increases to 58–42, as the Coalition and One Nation remain respectively at record lows and record highs. In Victoria, a Newspoll taken after Jess Wilson becomes Liberal leader gives the Coalition a 51–49 lead.
A national Newspoll, conducted November 17–20 from a sample of 1,245, gave Labor a 58–42 lead, a one-point gain for Labor since the previous Newspoll, three weeks ago.
Primary votes were 36% Labor (steady), 24% Coalition (steady), 15% One Nation (steady), 13% Greens (up two) and 12% for all Others (down two). The Coalition’s primary vote remained at a record low set in the previous Newspoll and One Nation remained at a record high.
