Morgan Poll Update – Page: Online : 24-Feb-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 1.5 per cent to 44 per cent. The poll, which was carried out on the weekends of 14-15 and 21-22 February 2015, also shows that support for the Australian Labor Party has fallen by 1.5 per cent to 56 per cent. Roy Morgan Research executive chairman Gary Morgan says that following a number of damaging leaks, the New South Wales election will be the next test for Prime Minister Tony Abbott, and a close result or a loss for Premier Mike Baird would increase the pressure on Abbott once again

The ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence rating for Australia fell by 1.7 per cent in the week ended 15 February 2015, to the lowest level since early August 2014. For now, it appears that concerns about job security, weak wages growth and the economic outlook are outweighing the boost from the recent interest rate cut, lower petrol prices and rising asset values. Confidence in the economic outlook over the next year fell by 4.3 per cent, and confidence in the economic outlook over the next five years fell by 3.2 per cent
