56% favour holding the Federal election later this year as scheduled and 23% think there should be an early election. Greens voters (35%) were more likely to favour an early election than Labor voters (23%) and Liberal/National voters (24%).
Since this question was asked in September, there has been a shift toward holding an early election.
