Support for Labor rebounds in latest Newspoll

The latest Newspoll shows support for Labor has rebounded with the two major parties no longer neck-and-neck after preferences. The last Newspoll for the year has seen Labor reassert its lead over the Coalition. Labor scored 52 per cent of the vote compared to the Coalition’s 48 per cent. It’s almost identical to the result the government achieved at the last federal election. Anthony Albanese currently has an 11-percentage point lead as the preferred prime minister over Opposition Leader Peter Dutton.
