RECEIVE CAMPAIGN UPDATESOPINION POLLS | Greens to hold balance of power?
A poll published by the Canberra Times has predicted that the ACT Greens will win 4 seats in the October 18 election. The poll suggests that the Greens will double their vote in each electorate.
The Patterson-Canberra Times poll is predicting that the final make-up of the Assembly will be 6 Labor, 6 Liberal, 4 Greens and 1 seat undecided - that seat being the seventh seat in Molongolo. For this seat, the poll predicted a close contest between a third ALP candidate and independent, ex-Queanbeyan mayor Frank Pangallo.
While heartening, this is a poll of only 1200 voters and has a 4.9% margin of error in each electorate. It gives some indication of voters’ intentions, the Greens campaign team is taking nothing for granted. We will be out there until voting closes talking to voters in all three electorates at shopping centre stalls, on people’s doorsteps and at community forums.
If you want to help the Greens make this opinion poll prediction a reality, talk to your family and friends about the benefits of voting Green. If you would also like to volunteer for the ACT Greens on or before election day, call our office on 6247 6350.
