Voters have begun applying for mail-in ballots ahead of the Oct. 14 referendum that would create an Indigenous Voice to Parliament.
But a Resolve Political Monitor opinion poll published in newspapers on Monday suggested the smallest state, Tasmania, was the only one with majority support for the Voice.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese took the final step in ensuring the referendum goes ahead by directing the governor-general late Monday to issue electoral authorities with a required legal order to conduct the vote. Albanese criticized Dutton over his opposition to the Voice, saying the conservative party leader had “chosen politics over substance.”Melbourne University election analyst Adrian Beaumont said referendums proposed by Albanese’s center-left Labor Party have always been opposed by their conservative opponents since 1946.
