Via a revamped Newspoll now conducted by YouGov online:
The Coalition holds a narrow lead over Labor ahead of the final parliamentary sitting fortnight of the year, with Scott Morrison and Anthony Albanese both losing voter appeal.
An exclusive Newspoll conducted for The Australian shows the Coalition ahead of Labor on a two-party-preferred vote of 51-49.
The latest Newspoll uses an improved methodology following an investigation into the failure of the major published polls — and internal political tracking — to accurately predict the May 18 election result.
