Labor on the nose in every state

The Gillard government is on the nose in every state in Australia, according to the latest Newspoll in The Australian newspaper on Tuesday.

The poll shows federal Labor is languishing behind the coalition on primary vote and on a two-party preferred basis in every state.

The paper says the government’s electoral standing has sunk well below its 2010 election result, with its support in every voting group and every state lagging behind the election day vote that stripped Labor of its parliamentary majority and forced it into minority rule.

The poll, taken between January and March, shows the government is down from between three and six percentage points on primary vote and two to five points after a distribution of preferences.

Its nightmare state remains Queensland where there has been a three percentage point swing on the two party-preferred vote against the ALP since August 2010.

It would wipe out all but one or two of the eight federal Queensland MPs in an election.
