South Australian Liberals who thought they just might benefit from the Premier getting into a spot of bother while on a fund raising night out were sadly disillusioned this morning.

The Advertiser poll published this morning gives the governing party a primary vote of 39% — up one percentage point on the September figure and four points higher than a year ago. As to his personal following, the recent publicity seems to have done no harm at all.

Federally the probability of a Labor win keeps improving with the Crikey Indicator now assessing it as a 78% chance.
