Morgan Poll Update – Page: Online : 10-Mar-15
A multi-mode Morgan Poll on Federal voting intention has found that support for the Coalition on a two-party preferred basis has risen by 2.5 per cent to 46.5 per cent. The poll, which was carried out on the weekends of 28 February-1 March and 7-8 March 2015, also shows that support for the Australian Labor Party has fallen by 2.5 per cent to 53.5 per cent. Roy Morgan Research executive chairman Gary Morgan says support for the Coalition rose after Prime Minister Tony Abbott committed to sending 300 Australian troops to Iraq to help train the Iraqi army in its fight against the Islamic State. He adds that the Morgan Poll has consistently shown a short-term boost to prime ministers who commit Australian forces to international battlefields
