Labor needs more time to win back voters. No wonder Anthony Albanese dismisses the idea of an early election.
Australians are in no mood to give Labor a vote of thanks when they are under severe pressure from rising prices and lower real wages, so they are letting out a howl of pain instead.Voters show little enthusiasm for their choices at the next election when they are given an open-ended question in the Resolve Political Monitor to say what they like about the two leaders.
Albanese argues, rightly, that many governments fall into a slump in the polls and recover by election day. Dutton, meanwhile, encourages talk of an early election. Everything hinges on the economy, and the latest Resolve Political Monitor shows how hard this has become for the government. One voter, for instance, was positive about Albanese: “He’s doing a good job in challenging times.” But another called him “all talk and no action” and a third was still fuming over the Indigenous Voice: “His decision to hold a divisive referendum convinced me never to vote Labor again.”
On balance, most voters now prefer Dutton and the Coalition on core policies such as economic management, national security and immigration. This month, they also lead on jobs and wages, a historical Labor strength., on June 30, had Labor on a primary vote of 32 per cent and the Coalition on 36 per cent. The Freshwater survey inon June 16 had Labor on 32 per cent and the Coalition on 40 per cent.
