US EditionThe long climb: Disaster for Coalition in new opinion poll as Albanese builds on record win
AUSTRALIA, JUL 20 – The Coalition's primary vote dropped to 29%, its lowest since 1985, while Labor’s vote rose to 36%, reflecting voter confidence in the economy despite leadership challenges.
- Prime Minister Anthony Albanese secured a landslide election win earlier this year with Labor receiving 55% of the two-party preferred vote and 94 seats in Australia.
- This followed a period of declining Coalition support, whose primary vote dropped to 29%, the lowest since Newspoll began recording in 1985, reflecting voter dissatisfaction and internal party challenges.
- Albanese's post-election focus included strengthening ties with China during a six-day visit at their invitation, and pushing legislation to tighten childcare standards following abuse allegations in Melbourne early learning centres.
- Polls indicate that Albanese holds a net positive rating of plus eight, with 45% of respondents viewing his job favorably, while Liberal leader Sussan Ley registers a 35% approval amid varied opinions on the party's approach to gender representation.
- The election outcome indicates continued Labor dominance but also highlights ongoing scrutiny over Albanese's leadership and the necessity for long-term reforms in childcare and economic policy.
