From The Australian:
The Coalition has pulled ahead of Labor for the first time in the campaign, and enters the final week leading by 51 per cent to 49 per cent as the economy takes centre stage amid fallout from Brexit.
The latest Newspoll, taken exclusively for The Australian, shows despite Labor’s fierce scare campaign on Medicare, the opposition has made no gains in the past week while the Coalition’s primary vote rose two points to a 14-week high of 43 per cent.
The poll of 1713 people was taken from Thursday night until yesterday, and is the first to gauge the effect on the election of Friday’s shock Brexit decision amid Malcolm Turnbull’s call at his official launch in Sydney for voters to stick with the “steady hand” of his government.
