Galaxy’s exit poll registered a similar result. It gave 3220 respondents a list of eight options, and the carbon tax was named as most important by 8 per cent, ranking behind leadership, budget, the "it’s time" factor and asylum seekers.
Another exit poll conducted by JWS Research, commissioned by the Climate Institute, echoed those findings. The automated telephone poll of 1591 voters used interactive voice response (IVR) technology. As seen below, it found that "repealing the carbon tax" was the most important priority for just 3 per cent of respondents.
Furthermore, Essential Media polling on September 5 asked respondents to pick the three main reasons they were voting for their party. Those voting for the Coalition nominated "better at handling the economy" (69%), "need a change of government" (28%) and "more capable of governing effectively" (26%). Only 1% nominated "better policies on things like environment and climate change".
