New poll presents test for Coalition leader Angus Taylor
One Nation’s rise to 23% matches the Coalition’s primary vote amid a major-party support collapse and 92% voter concern over cost of living, Resolve poll shows.
- In the first published poll after the leadership change, Resolve Political Monitor found One Nation's primary vote rose to 23 per cent, matching the Coalition's 23 per cent on February 15, 2026.
- With major-party support collapsing, the Coalition slides from 28 per cent in January as One Nation surges, while cost of living affects 92 per cent and ranks top concern for 45 per cent.
- Resolve's poll shows 52 per cent of respondents are unsure or have no preference, with a margin of error ±2.3 per cent and 1,800 respondents surveyed.
- Party figures acknowledged on Sunday they must urgently claw back support, with Taylor securing a plus 3 percentage point likeability rating, compared to Albanese's minus 12 and Ley's minus 11, and 61 per cent of respondents had heard of Taylor.
- Pollster Jim Read warned only seat-by-seat two-candidate preferred counts could reveal One Nation gains, saying `minor party` is no longer a useful label given its rapid rise.
