Rudd and Labor surge

Submitted by Visitor on Mon, 2007-02-05 09:43

Kevin Rudd and the ALP are riding an environmental wave to the party's best electoral position in six years as the new Labor team's honeymoon with the voters continues.

As the Opposition Leader campaigns on an anti-nuclear, climate-change and water-relief platform, Labor appears to be getting support from the Greens and Nationals to eclipse the best of Mark Latham's leadership and Kim Beazley's last term.

On a two-party preferred basis, Labor now has a commanding 12-point lead - 56 per cent compared with 44 for the Coalition. Labor's primary vote has surged three percentage points to 47 per cent, up from 44 per cent a month earlier.

Mr Debnam's approval rating has nose-dived by nine points to just 29 per cent, while NSW Premier Morris Iemma has slipped six to 52 per cent. While 38 per cent of voters may now know who Mr Debnam is, up 18 points from July, his disapproval rating has jumped by 11 points to 44 per cent. The Galaxy poll showed Labor also has recorded its highest primary vote in 12 months at 39 per cent while the coalition's primary vote has fallen from 48 per cent to 38 per ce
