You are referring to primary votes and the Liberal Party only has about 28%. When you add the preferences of Qld LNP and the Nationals and any other preferences you get a 2pp for the coalition of just under 52% to Labors just over 48%.

If you add the primary vote of Labor and the Greens they outnumber the total of the primary votes for the Liberals, LNP and Nationals. Of course we all know that is not how elections are determined because preferences have to be allocated from all parties including Independents.

So your attempt to diminish Labor by referencing the primary vote is a fail!

Its 51.63% to the Coalition govt and 48.37 to Labor!
