ALP maintains strong lead as Australia’s Olympians return home
| Finding No. 4317 -
These are the latest results from the Morgan Poll of Australian electors for the period of August 23/24 & 30/31 including interviews with 1,786 Australian electors.:
September 05, 2008 |
In early September, ALP support is 50% (up 3%) well ahead of L-NP support 37% (down 0.5%). On a two-party preferred basis, support for the ALP is 58% (up 1%), while support for the L-NP is 42% (down 1%).
If the Federal Election were held today the ALP would win according to the latest face-to-face Morgan Poll conducted on the weekends of August 23/24 & 30/31.
Among the minor parties, support for the Greens is 6.5% (down 2%), support for Family First 2% (unchanged) and Independents/Others 4.5% (down 0.5%).
The Roy Morgan Government Confidence Rating has fallen back 4 points to 119 points. Australia is “heading in the right direction” according to 51% (down 1%) of Australians, compared to 32% (up 3%) that say Australia is “heading in the wrong direction.”
The latest Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence Rating (conducted on the weekend of August 30/31) has rebounded strongly from a 17-year low reached in early August, rising 9.2 points to 99.3.
Gary Morgan says:
“In the afterglow of a successful Australian Olympic campaign, Kevin Rudd’s support has continued to strengthen.
“The rising Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence Rating, driven by the Reserve Bank’s decision to start cutting interest rates, will maintain the Rudd Government’s support in coming months.
“The continuing speculation about the leadership of the Opposition is undermining the credibility of the Coalition as an alternative Government. Until the Opposition unites behind one leader it will remain well behind the Rudd Government”
Electors were asked: “If a Federal election for the House of Representatives were being held today — which party would receive your first preference?”
This face-to-face Morgan Poll on Federal voting intention was conducted over the weekends of August 23/24 & 30/31, 2008, with an Australia-wide cross-section of 1,786 electors.
During the polling period:
- Speculation continued about Peter Costello, who is yet to reveal whether he will retire from politics. The former Treasurer, described by Tony Abbott as the Liberal Party’s ‘best political asset’, ruled out a leadership challenge but did not rule out accepting the leadership if Brendan Nelson stepped aside.
- US Republican Presidential candidate John McCain announced the relatively unknown Sarah Palin as his running mate. Controversial details about the unexpected vice-presidential nominee are being discovered and leaked out each passing day.
- Barack Obama was officially nominated as the Democratic Party presidential candidate in front of 75,000 supporters. Hillary and Bill Clinton also threw their support behind Obama’s campaign. Obama named Joseph Biden as his running mate.
- Fairfax Media announced they would be cutting 550 jobs, 5% of its workforce, and was met with much protests from disgruntled journalists.
- The Beijing Olympics came to a close, described by IOC chief Jacques Rogge as ‘truly exceptional’. The Australian Olympians arrived home and were met by Prime Minister Kevin Rudd at Sydney airport.
- East Timor's Prime Minister Xanana Gusmao visited Australia, lobbying for the inclusion of East Timorese workers as part of the Pacific Islander guest worker scheme.

Margin of Error
The margin of error to be allowed for in any estimate depends mainly on the number of interviews on which it is based. The following table gives indications of the likely range within which estimates would be 95% likely to fall, expressed as the number of percentage points above or below the actual estimate. The figures are approximate and for general guidance only, and assume a simple random sample. Allowance for design effects (such as stratification and weighting) should be made as appropriate.

The Morgan Poll was the most accurate of all polling companies at the 2007 Federal election for both primary vote and two-party preferred predictions (sample 2,115 electors).
The Morgan Poll accurately predicted that the ALP would win the 2006 Queensland election with a reduced majority (sample 604 electors).
The Morgan Poll accurately predicted that the ALP would win the 2006 Victorian election with a reduced majority (sample 956 electors). The Morgan Poll was also the most accurate on the primary vote of the major parties for the Victorian election.
Note: The recent discussion on Possum Pollytics regarding Morgan and Newspoll is well worth reading.
The following included comment says it all: “I find it interesting that for the only poll in the last five years for which there is any ‘real’ figure with which to compare, i.e. the polls immediately before the 2004 election, Morgan (45.5%) was closer to the actual Coalition Primary (46.7%) than Newspoll (45%) or Nielsen (49%), and Morgan (38.5%) was also closer to the ALP actual primary (37.6%) than Newspoll (39%), and only marginally further away than Nielsen (37%). Since we have no idea of how far away the ongoing polls are from ‘reality’ (whatever that means), surely we should just go with what we know, that in the most recent testable case, Morgan was better at forecasting the actual primary vote than Newspoll. On what possible basis should we decide that the Newspoll or Nielsen primary vote estimate is ‘better’ than Morgan’s.”
