New poll shows Albanese gaining support in Australia
A new poll shows a decline in support for Opposition Leader Peter Dutton, with his approval rating dropping to -12. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's rating has improved to -10, marking the first time he has led in preferred prime minister votes since October. The Coalition remains ahead in the two-party-preferred vote but lost ground, dropping from 52% to 51%. Meanwhile, the Greens face potential losses in Queensland, risking their presence in the lower house, which could impact Labor's ability to form a government. Voter expectations indicate a minority government is likely, with 42% believing Labor will win and 45% favoring the Coalition. Despite the poll's mixed results, it reflects a five-point gain for Labor and a five-point loss for the Coalition.
