A national YouGov poll for Sky News, conducted May 12–19 from a sample presumably of 1,500, gave Labor 28% of the primary vote (down two since the previous YouGov poll in late April to early May), One Nation 25% (up one), the Coalition 23% (up two), the Greens 13% (down one), independents 5% (steady) and others 6% (steady).
By respondent preferences, Labor led the Coalition by 52–48, a two-point gain for the Coalition. Labor led One Nation by 53–47, a four-point gain for One Nation. In the last three YouGov polls, Labor has led One Nation by 52–48, 57–43 and now 53–47.
