  "account": "The latest federal polls have shown mixed results for the Coalition and One Nation parties. In the DemosAU poll, the Coalition saw a four-point increase in the primary vote to 25%, while One Nation experienced a five-point decline to 24%. However, the other two polls, YouGov and Morgan, presented different outcomes. One Nation gained two points in the YouGov poll, while the Coalition dropped by one point to 21%. In contrast, One Nation's lead over the Coalition increased to 5-6 points in the YouGov poll, and the combined support for One Nation and the Coalition reached 49% in DemosAU. The Tasmanian state poll suggests that the Liberals and One Nation would likely secure a combined majority of seats. A national YouGov poll conducted from August 18-24 revealed that Labor led with 29% of the primary vote, followed by One Nation with 26% and the Coalition at 21%. In head-to-head matchups, Albanese led Taylor by 44-37, while Hanson trailed with 37% support. Respondents were asked to rate Albanese, Taylor, and Hanson on trustworthiness, leadership, and relatability, with Albanese leading in each category, followed by Hanson and Taylor.",
  "summary": "A DemosAU poll has the Coalition up and One Nation down, while two other polls show Pauline Hanson’s party is still on the rise.",
