There is one thing more certain than pollies kissing babies on the campaign trail: You are going to see a lot of opinion polling.

It averages the results of the five pollsters conducting national polls: YouGov Galaxy, Essential, Resolve, Ipsos and Roy Morgan. And, while we can see what the polls are collectively saying, this model says nothing about how accurate those polls actually are. The margin of error varies, depending on how many polls have recently been published, and their sample sizes, but currently it is plus or minus 1.2 per cent.Today, the polls are collectively putting Labor ahead — in two-party preferred terms — with between 53.6 and 56 per cent of the vote.If that was the result on election night, it would be a complete landslide and by historical standards.

Essential is reporting undecided voters in its figures, and ABC is converting this into a traditional, two-party preferred figure by excluding them.On first preferences, Labor's support in the polls overtook the Coalition's in December, 2021.

NO! Australia is facing off, between more years of manipulation by a the archetypal sales group ready to sell whatever it takes to get our vote; OR some hope of a quieter leadership that listens to the experts and acts in a responsible manner with our resources and development.

Do not give either of these fucking charlatans your vote.

Can we have a federalICAC now?

The media and political parties are the ones who care about polls. No one else gives a rat's.

Way too much emphasis is placed on polls in my opinion. The only poll that matters is the one on election day.

Vote for a cockroach, they will do better than these 2

Voters will look towards Clive Palmer ‘with some scepticism’UAP is effectively LNP . Their preferences goes to LNP before ALP. They have same miner donations and support like LNP. Same climate sceptics,same backdoor deals and stick fingers at civility and research You vote UAP you support LNP thru the backdoor. How does he know? He hopes this will be the case! Nothing like planting ideas in people's heads & sadly there aren't many free logical thinkers left after 2 years of government media gaslight activity across the nation. We all need to know where a vote for Clive Palmer really goes. Hope the ALP can clearly convey this during their campaign. Too many people don’t understand the system & preferences. A vote for UAP is a foxy vote for the LNP. Clive is campaigning for the LNP. auspol AlboForPM
