A special Roy Morgan SMS Poll last week revealed that support for the Monarchy amongst Australians has grown over the last decade, with 60% (up 5% points since November 2012) now saying Australia should remain a Monarchy while only 40% (down 5% points) say Australia should become a Republic with an elected President. A look at these results by voting intention reveals what may be a surprise to some – it is those who vote for the ALP who have driven this increase in support for the Monarchy from a decade ago. Now a clear majority of ALP voters, 58% (up 18% points since November 2012) say that Australia should remain as a Monarchy – a far larger change than by either L-NP voters or Greens voters who appear far more set in their ways. L-NP voters are staunch supporters of the Monarchy, with 68% saying Australia should remain as a Monarchy, although this is down 3% points on November 2012. At the other end of the spectrum it is Greens supporters who are clearly in support of a Republic with only 34% saying that Australia should remain as a Monarchy, up 4% points in a decade. Supporters of Independents and Other Parties – an increasingly large share of the electorate – are also moving more firmly in favour of the Monarchy. Now 72% of these voters say Australia should remain as a Monarchy, an increase of 15% points on November 2012.
