Election
Nationals Senator Matt Canavan says while the latest Newspoll showing a decline in Coalition support is “not a great one”, there is still a lot of time until the election.
“That poll’s not a great one for us, but Josh (Frydenberg) is right that there’s still a lot of time to go – it’s about probably 100 odd days to the election – that’s a lot of time,” Mr Canavan told Sky News host Cory Bernardi.
“I was always expecting the poll not to be great for us – the first poll this year – because as the virus sweeps through our community, votes for the government are probably going to be hard to get.”
