In mid October support for the ALP is 50.5% (up 2.5%) cf. L-NP 49.5% (down 2.5%) on a two-party preferred basis according to the latest face-to-face Morgan Poll conducted over the last two weekends, October 13/14 & 20/21, 2012.

Today’s face-to-face Morgan Poll shows the L-NP primary vote is 38.5% (down 4.5% in 2 weeks) ahead of the ALP 37.5% (up 0.5%). Among the minor parties Greens support is up sharply by 2% to 12.5% and Independents/ Others up 2% to 11.5%.

If a Federal election were held today the result would be too close to call according to this face-to-face Morgan Poll.

The Roy Morgan Government Confidence Rating has fallen to 106.5pts (down 1.5pts over the last two weeks) with 44% (down 1%) saying Australia is ‘heading in the right direction,’ compared to 37.5% (up 0.5%) saying Australia is ‘heading in the wrong direction’.
