Morgan Poll Update – Page: Online : 30-May-16

A multi-mode Morgan Poll on Federal voting intention has found that support for Australia’s ruling Liberal-National Coalition on a two-party preferred basis has risen by 1.5 per cent to 49 per cent. The poll, which was carried out on the weekends of 21-22 and 28-29 May 2016, also shows that the Coalition’s primary vote has risen by one to 37.5 per cent, while the Roy Morgan Government Confidence Rating has fallen by 2.5 points to 102. Roy Morgan Research executive chairman Gary Morgan notes that support for the minor parties is at a massive 30 per cent (up 8.9 per cent from the 2013 Federal Election), and support for the minor parties will only rise after the uninspiring Leader’s debate. Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull did not explain how the unemployed and under-employed (18.1 per cent, or 2.322 million) will get jobs and Opposition Leader Bill Shorten gave no indication on how a Labor Government would create more private sector jobs by massive increases in public sector spending. However, Turnbull and Shorten still have time to present believable policies which tackle Australia’s booming "cash economy" and reduce real unemployment and under-employment.
