In a federal Redbridge poll, the total vote for One Nation and the Coalition has been steady since late August at 50 per cent, but Anthony Albanese’s net favourability slumped 10 points to a record low -27, possibly reflecting the Reserve Bank’s interest rate hike last Tuesday.

The two other federal polls were both taken before the rate hike. The total right vote was down two points to 47 per cent in Essential and at 48 per cent in Morgan.

A Victorian Freshwater poll gave the Coalition a 53-47 lead over Labor after preferences. With under two months until the November 28 state election, the Coalition is clearly ahead in all recent polls.

Federal Redbridge poll

A national Redbridge and Accent Research poll for The Australian Financial Review, conducted September 28 to October 2 from a sample of 1000, gave One Nation 29 per cent of the primary vote (up one since the late August Redbridge poll), Labor 28 per cent (down one), the Coalition 21 per cent (down one), the Greens 11 per cent (down one) and all others 11 per cent (up two).

By respondent preferences, Labor led One Nation by an unchanged 52-48. The Coalition led Labor by 54-46, a two-point gain for the Coalition. By 2025 election preference flows, Labor and the Coalition were tied 50-50, a two-point gain for the Coalition.

Albanese’s net favourability slumped 10 points to a record low -27 and Treasurer Jim Chalmers’ was down nine points to -23. Pauline Hanson’s was up two points to -10. Angus Taylor’s was down three points to -6. Reserve Bank governor Michele Bullock’s was -3.

In a three-way preferred PM question, Albanese had 31 per cent (steady), Hanson 26 per cent (up two) and Taylor 15 per cent (steady).

The right (One Nation and Coalition) led the left (Labor and Greens) on all the issues cited.........
