Many voters don’t believe Peter Dutton is the right man to lead Australia less than a week out from the federal election, according to the latest new poll.
While almost half don’t want Anthony Albanese to serve a second term as Prime Minister, the Coalition leader’s approval rating has plummeted to a new low.
Neither Labor or the Coalition have seen a shift in primary support in the last week, according to the latest Newspoll for the The Australian.
Support for both the major parties remains at a near record low as Australia heads into the final week before the election.
Mr Dutton has continued to declare the election winnable for the Coalition but it seems he has failed to convince voters he is deserving of the top job.
Labor’s primary vote has stayed the same for the second poll in a row at 34 per cent compared to the Coalition’s 35 per cent.
In May 2022, Labor was elected on its lower ever primary vote at an election and its current primary vote of 34 per cent is a 1.4 per cent improvement on the last election result.
Meanwhile, the Coalition’s primary vote is lower than its last election result of 35.7 per cent.

The last federal election saw the lowest level of representation for the Coalition since the Liberal Party was formed under Robert Menzies in 1944.
Mr Albanese has failed to convince voters that he deserves another chance at leading the country, with 48 per cent believing he shouldn’t be re-elected.
