Not looking good for the Lieberals in Queensland

A new Galaxy poll out on key marginal seats shows large swings against the Lieberals with North Queensland and south east Queensland shaping up as a Lieberal bloodbath. Whether Labor can actually win the state remains to be seen, but even Campbell Newman himself is in trouble in his own seat of Ashgrove. If the Lieberals do win, they will be a battered and bruised bunch, possibly without a leader.

Amusing how the article blames Katter's party demise for the surge in Labor support. I'd say it's more like the Lieberals have shit policies. Do Queenslanders really want to see coal ships going through the Reef?
  ANNASTACIA Palaszczuk could become the state’s accidental premier with the LNP losing the battle against a massive protest vote in key seats across Queensland.

A Galaxy Poll conducted exclusively for The Courier-Mail has revealed double-digit swings against the Newman Government in the electorates of Pumicestone and Greenslopes.

Dozens of LNP seats in Brisbane and the surrounding region would be in peril if the seismic shift against the Government is replicated elsewhere.

The result will raise further questions over whether Premier Campbell Newman can secure Ashgrove and the potential for the LNP to win narrowly without him.

The Galaxy Poll also revealed the LNP could be wiped out across north Queensland, a key battleground during the election, with Labor profiting off the demise of Katter’s Australian Party. more
