Labor and Albanese slump to new lows in Newspoll, but Labor improves in a DemosAU poll

This is Labor’s second lowest ever primary vote in Newspoll, which they had last equalled in April 2012 when Julia Gillard was prime minister.

Labor's primary vote in the latest Newspoll has dropped to 27%, marking its worst performance since 2012 and only one point above the all-time low. Anthony Albanese's net approval has plummeted to a record low of -27 points. In contrast, Labor's primary vote in the DemosAU poll has risen by two points to 28%, its highest level in that poll since February.

The combined vote for One Nation and the Coalition remains steady at 49% in the Newspoll but has declined by three points to 46% in the DemosAU poll, the lowest combined right vote since January.
