Northern Territory urban voters survey, 1982

A study of population mobility and party allegiance in the urban population of the Northern Territory was carried out in order to examine whether Territorians see themselves as being 'different' and are in fact different to other Australians, with consequent political implications. Topics investigated include past and present voting preferences; attitudes towards political parties, their leaders and their policies; attitudes towards class mobility and conflict; perceived power groups; and problems facing the Northern Territory. Background variables include age; sex; country of origin; state of origin; racial identification; marital status; occupation of self, spouse, parents and parents-in-law; duration of NT residence; union membership, club and association membership; level of education; religion.
