ACNielsen: 52-48; Newspoll: 55-45. The latest monthly ACNielsen poll has produced an encouraging debut performance for new Liberal leader Malcolm Turnbull, with the Coalition leading Labor on the primary vote 42 per cent to 41 per cent. — The Poll Bludger Turnbull poll bounce? ACNielsen 52-48, Newspoll 55-45.

So if an election were held now, Malcolm Turnbull would absolutely thrash Brendan Nelson. — Tim Dunlop, Blogocracy Turnbull puts life into Dennis Shanahan. Todays’ P1 banner “Turnbull puts life into the Libs” is a cracker, based on polling that shows an 8% pump for Malcolm over Nelson’s sorry preferred PM figure. But read the story, stunning… It’s not until the seventh paragraph that we learn that despite this romping return to form “the primary vote did not change outside the margin of error”. — Jonathan Green |
