Victorian Labor crashes to 18% in shock new poll
A new poll shows Victorian Labor's primary vote at an historic low of 18%, behind both the Coalition and One Nation.
A DemosAU poll released Monday shows Victorian Labor with just 18% primary support, down seven points and its lowest level on record. The Coalition leads at 33%, while One Nation sits at 21%.
The poll has a margin of error of 3.4%. Some Labor MPs treat it as an outlier, pointing to other public polls showing their primary vote in the 20s.
Party leader Ben Carroll focused his response on crime announcements rather than directly addressing the poll.

Why it mattersIf the numbers hold, Victorian Labor faces its worst election result in decades, with the Coalition set to govern and One Nation holding significant leverage in parliament.
AustraliaVictoria's election is November 28. A Coalition win would reshape Australian politics, potentially strengthening One Nation's influence at state level and signalling losses the federal government cannot ignore.
