With the recommendation of double dissolution in Australia, the federal elections are now to be held on July 2, 2016 much earlier than the scheduled election later this year. There are approximately 50-days left for election campaigning.

The ruling Coalition of Liberal-National party has put in its full throttle to emerge victorious through the election. While the opposition Australian Labor party which is out of power is leaving no stone unturned to win the election trial.

The election date is approaching near and the opinion polls have already started to predict the winner.

The Essential research survey conducted its survey during 27 April – May 1, 2016. The poll results predicted a win for Labor party with 52% while a loss for Liberal-national coalition with 48% of the vote share. 

There is a 2% jump for the Labor party and a decline of 2% for the Coalition since the earlier survey conducted by the same agency two weeks ago on 26th April 2016. The sample size of the survey was 1,754. The residents were asked question on their preferred voting if elections are held today. 

On two party preferred basis (only two – Liberal/National Coalition and Labor party- are major party)
