In a new opinion poll released by the Herald Sun on Monday, the Victorian Labor Party’s primary vote fell to an all‑time low of 18%, placing it third behind the Coalition and One Nation.
The DemosAU/PremierNational survey, first published by the Herald Sun, shows Labor at 18%, One Nation at 21% and the Coalition at 33%. The Greens improved their primary vote to 17%, a rise of three points since September.
Labor MPs have expressed scepticism and serious concern over the results. Ben Carroll, a senior Labor figure, has refused to be drawn on the latest poll.
The poll indicates that Labor’s primary vote share has crashed seven points to 18%, underscoring the party’s precarious position ahead of the 2026 Victorian state election.
With One Nation now ahead of Labor and the Greens close behind, the new figures highlight a challenging landscape for the Labor Party as it prepares for the upcoming election.
