Labor is maintaining a strong two-party preferred lead on the Coalition as support among women voters continues to grow despite a surge towards One Nation, new polling has revealed.

The Albanese government clinched 56 per cent of the vote on a two-party preferred basis in early-April, according to polling by Roy Morgan released on Monday.

That result driven in large part by insurgent support for Labor among women voters.

A whopping 61 per cent of women, up 3.5 per cent, said they would vote for Labor on a two-party preferred basis, according to the April 6-12 poll.

Less than 40 per cent said they would vote for the Coalition.

For men, the results were considerably different, with 50 per cent of men, down four per cent, saying they would vote Labor, putting the major parties neck-and-neck.

On the primary vote, support among men for Labor fell one per cent, but increased by 2.5 per cent for One Nation.

Across the demographics, support for One Nation rose by three per cent to 24.5 per cent.

Nonetheless, if an election was held now, Labor would be returned to government with a clear majority, according to the polling.

The two-party preferred movement is driven by the changing primary votes and preference flows, with primary support for Labor unchanged at 32.5 per cent.

Support for the Greens rose 1.5 percentage points to 16.5 per cent.

One Nation is up 2.5 percentage points to 19 per cent – largely at the expense of the Coalition, which dipped 3.5 per cent down to 21.5 per cent.

Among men, primary support for Labor is down to 28 per cent, but support for One Nation is up to 29.5 per cent – making it the most popular party on the primary vote.

Support for the Coalition rose to 23 per cent while support for Independents and other parties dipped 2 percentage points to 10.5 per cent.

Roy Morgan’s Government Confidence Rating stood at 65.5 – over 30 points below the neutral level of 100.

Only 26 per cent of electors said they felt the country was “going in the right direction”.

A large majority – 60.5 per cent of those surveyed – say the country is going in the “wrong direction”.
