EXCLUSIVE Argument over the COVID-19 vaccine rollout and new virus outbreaks has resulted in voters turning on Prime Minister Scott Morrison, new political research reveals. |CroweDM reports
Voters have revealed their frustration with Prime Minister Scott Morrison after weeks of argument over the vaccine rollout and new virus outbreaks, reversing months of support to cut his net performance rating to minus 1 per cent.
The findings are contained in a new survey that shows a decline in primary vote for both major parties over the past month, with the Coalition falling from 40 to 38 per cent and Labor falling from 36 to 35 per cent.by research company Resolve Strategic, reveals a sharp decline in voter satisfaction with Mr Morrison alongside the blow to his party.
“The significant drops in Scott Morrison’s performance rating over the last two months tell us that voters are reassessing him,” said Resolve director Jim Reed.“This is all about COVID – the recent outbreaks, the vaccine rollout and financial support.” “The Resolve Political Monitor provides a suite of minor party and independent options in our primary vote measure, just like the real ballot paper. Given this, it appears that Coalition voters have moved to One Nation and others, rather than to Labor,” Mr Reed said.
Mr Reed said this suggested voters were reassessing parties and their leaders, a heightened volatility borne out by the fall in support for the Coalition and Mr Morrison.
