Don't know about the other three, but Dan is too cunning to be caught out at that inquiry.

PT, Dan is the beneficiary of the “Stockholm Syndrome”. Back in the 1973 a bank in Stockholm was held up and staff at the bank were kept as hostages by their armed captors for a week. After that period of time the hostages feared the armed police trying to save them than their armed captors. The Syndrome is psychological response where those hostages developed a connection to their captors over a period of time of days, weeks , months or even years.You may remember how Patty Hearst , the newspaper heiress, who was kidnapped in 1974 by militants, yet after a period of time became subject to that same psychological response and joined up with those militants and robbed a bank.

Does that sound familiar with what is going on Victoria right now ?

Presently the virus is a “ business issue” not a “ household issue” , rusted on ALP supporters will always back Dan, those in the public service are still on full pay, both Jobseeker & JobSearch are propping up many underemployed or unemployed, that is a huge percentage of the population and further as each day passes less people are catching the virus. All of those factors are contributing the Dan’s supposed popularity, however once Jobseeker & JobSearch are cut back at the end of September, you know what will hit the fan and people will realise how Dan and his hopeless government have botched up the hotel quarantine and tracing popularity will plummet like a brick in a swimming pool.

Bob channeling your “inner Doc”?

That is just nonsense.

First you say, the only reason Dan has support, is due to Stockholm syndrome.
Which is just bat sh1t crazy.

Then you go on to say, when government handouts that cease this month, everyone will see the light and hate him.

They are mutually exclusive.

I wonder if Dan has ever bothered to find out why the "Experts " say we can eat half raw Beef and Fish but not Chicken or Pork.

      It's like me never agreeing with Rusty , PT , Marble or Afros .

It avoids all of us being wrong.    ( Think about it )

Rusty, I may not have made myself clear in your mind. Dan’s supposed popularity is a combination of all of those factors, not one or two , but all in different degrees.
Many people are still receiving welfare equal to their income prior to the virus, however businesses are going broke by the day, once that welfare ceases people will be in the same situation as those businesses...they will default on mortgages, struggle to buy food, you name it.
Don’t worry Dan’s popularity is a statistical anomaly.

Some of those 62% of Dan supporters believe Dan has done a good job, reducing positives down from the 700s to the teens today that is the psychological connection to that Stockholm Syndrome , but we all know where those 700s started don’t we ?

Don't forget the majority at this time are on the good end of the stick ... Pensioners getting $1500 handouts , dole people never seen the pocket so full , subsidised Brothels < Unlimited Toilet paper , Bottle shops thriving, No evictions , and the Government is handing it out by the trillions .

Victorian ALP Government support now 51.5% would win a close election with L-NP on 48.5%


In Victoria support for the ALP is now at 51.5% compared to the L-NP on 48.5% on a two-party preferred basis according to a special Roy Morgan SMS survey on Victorian voting intention with a cross-section of 1,147 Victorian electors aged 18+ over the last few days.

The two-party preferred support for the ALP has dropped a significant 5.8% points since the 2018 Victorian State Election while L-NP support is up 5.8% points.

Today’s Roy Morgan Poll on Victorian voting intention shows that if a Victorian Election were held today the ALP would be returned with a narrow majority for a third term of Government.


Primary Vote for ALP plunges since 2018 State Election

Primary support for the ALP is now at 37%, down 5.9% points since the 2018 Victorian State Election and now behind the L-NP on 38.5% (up 3.3% points).

Support for the Greens is up slightly to 12% (up 1.3% points) while support for Other Parties has increased to 8.5% (up 3.4% points). A further 4% of Victorians are now supporting Independent candidates, down 2.1% points from the 2018 Victorian State Election.


Two-Party Preferred support splits by Region & Gender

Two clear splits have emerged in Victoria with city-dwellers in Melbourne and women supporting the ALP on a two-party preferred basis while Country Victorians and men are more likely to support the L-NP.

Women clearly favour the ALP on a two-party preferred basis with support at 57% compared to only 43% for the L-NP. In contrast a majority of 53.5% of men support the L-NP compared to 46.5% supporting the ALP.

Melburnians (who comprise the bulk of the population of Victoria) favour the ALP on a two-party preferred basis with support of 53.5% compared to 46.5% for the L-NP while in Country Victoria support for the L-NP is at 55% compared to only 45% for the ALP.

This special Roy Morgan Snap SMS survey was conducted with a Victoria-wide cross-section of 1,147 Victorian electors aged 18+ conducted on Tuesday September 15 – Thursday September 17, 2020.


Roy Morgan CEO Michele Levine says the ALP would still be the favourite if a Victorian State Election were held today although support for the L-NP has risen substantially since 2018:

“The Second Wave of COVID-19 in Victoria has led to a tightening between the two major parties with the ALP on 51.5% only narrowly ahead of the L-NP on 48.5% on a two-party preferred basis in mid-September.

“ALP support has dropped substantially since the 2018 Victorian State Election with primary support down nearly 6% points to 37%. This support has flowed to several parties including the Opposition L-NP, up 3.3% points to 38.5%, the Greens, up 1.3% points to 12% and Other Parties up 3.4% points to 8.5%.

“However, the big split that has emerged is between the genders and between Melbourne and Country Victoria. The ALP retains big leads amongst women (57% cf. 43%) and in Melbourne (53.5% cf. 46.5%), but the L-NP is now well ahead with men (53.5% cf. 46.5%) and in Country Victoria (55% cf. 45%).

“As Victoria (hopefully) emerges from the Second Wave of COVID-19 in the next couple of months the big issues will revolve around supporting businesses and re-booting the Victorian economy and providing jobs for the hundreds of thousands of Victorians now looking for new work.

“The next two years presents a huge test for the ALP to rebuild it’s credibility after the devastating impact of the second wave of COVID-19 following mis-steps in the Victorian hotel quarantine program for returned travellers and inadequate contact tracing and testing in Victoria compared to its counterpart in New South Wales.”


Victorian electors were asked: "If a State Election for Victoria were being held today — which party would receive your first preference?"
