Story summary
The latest Newspoll in Australia shows a shift in voter preferences, with Labor leading at 29%, followed closely by One Nation at 28% and the Coalition at 20%. The poll, conducted between October 31 and November 3, surveyed 1,241 voters nationwide. This marks a decline for One Nation from its peak of 31% in early June and 30% in September to its current level of 28%. Additionally, Pauline Hanson's personal net rating dropped to -9, reflecting dissatisfaction from 52% of voters compared to the 43% who were satisfied with her performance. These changes indicate a potential waning influence of One Nation as Anthony Albanese's popularity rises.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
