Abbott preferred in western Sydney: poll
From: AAP March 05, 2013 12:14AM
VOTERS in Sydney's west would rather have Kevin Rudd as prime minister than Julia Gillard, but Tony Abbott remains their top choice, a poll shows.
The Seven News/ReachTEL poll found Mr Rudd has a clear lead over Ms Gillard as the preferred prime minister - 74.5 per cent to 25.5 per cent - if voters are forced to choose between the two.
Almost 42 per cent of western Sydney residents would be more likely to vote Labor if Mr Rudd was leader of the party.
But the poll found both Ms Gillard and Mr Rudd sank below Opposition Leader Tony Abbott as preferred prime minister.
If given the choice of four prime ministers, 39.2 per cent of voters would choose Mr Abbott, followed by Mr Rudd at 26 per cent, Malcolm Turnbull at 22.1 per cent, and Ms Gillard at just 13.2 per cent.
The poll surveyed 1615 residents from 11 electorates in Sydney's west.
