Both major parties are down 1.5 per [...]

Kevin Rudd scores a surprisingly modest 51 per cent as Labor leader, weighed down by contrary Liberals and a telling preference for Julia Gillard among the small sample of Greens supporters. Among Labor supporters, his rating is [...]

Newspoll’s latest state results for South Australia have appeared on their website (hat tip to Sykesie).

Labor’s two-party lead is at 56-44, the same result as [...]
