Morgan poll tips Labor win
October 9, 2004
POLLSTER Gary Morgan has again put his reputation on the line, going against the trend in other polls by forecasting a close Labor win tonight.
Mr Morgan, whose company Roy Morgan Research tipped a landslide victory by Kim Beazley in the 2001 election, has put the Labor Party ahead on a two-party preferred basis by 51 per cent to 49 per cent.
Mr Morgan said the result was too close to call because it hinged on marginal coalition seats, with the serious possibility of a hung parliament.
A Newspoll in today's Weekend Australian newspaper had the two parties equal 50-50 after preferences.
The latest ACNielsen poll published in The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age newspapers, showed the coalition leading Labor 54 per cent to 46 per cent on a two-party preferred basis.
