As a result, the Coalition now leads Labor on a two-party preferred basis by 57 per cent to 43 per cent, an increase of 2 points since last month's poll.

Local media said this represents a seven-point swing towards the Coalition since the August, 2010 federal election. If repeated at this year's election and if the swing were uniform, Labor would lose 30 seats, leaving it with just 42 seats in the House of Representatives.
