‘Amplifying their own flanks’: Minor parties pluck votes along the campaign trail

Redbridge Group Director Kos Samaras says minor parties are plucking votes from the Coalition and Labor’s campaign trail, claiming they are “amplifying their own flanks”.

“Every time they run a campaign against each other, all they’re doing is amplifying their own flanks – so if the Coalition was running a successful campaign right now, I would say that the impact of that will be that the Labor party would lose votes to the minor parties,” Mr Samaras said.

“We’re seeing the impact now, of the Labor campaign is having a significant impact on the Coalition primary, but as we can see with these numbers, it’s all going to minor parties.”
