Federal Election Exit Poll, 1993

The exit poll was conducted to determine why people voted the way they did in the 1993 Federal Election. It also allowed prediction of electoral success and the two party preferred vote at the state and national levels. Respondents were asked who they voted for in the House of Representatives and the Senate and why; which leader they preferred to be Prime Minister; whether higher preferences were given to the ALP or the Coalition; which issue(s) were major influences on the respondent in deciding how to vote; and whether the GST and low unemployment affected the respondent's decision to vote for the Coalition and the Government respectively. Background variables include occupation, age and sex.

本次出口民调（exit poll）旨在探明1993年联邦大选中选民的投票行为动因，同时可用于预测选举胜负及州、国家级别的两党偏好投票（two party preferred vote）情况。受访者需回答以下问题：在众议院（House of Representatives）与参议院（Senate）中的投票选择及投票原因；更倾向于哪位人士担任总理（Prime Minister）；是否将更高的偏好票投给了澳大利亚工党（ALP, Australian Labor Party）或联合阵营（Coalition）；哪些议题对其投票决策产生了主要影响；以及商品及服务税（GST, Goods and Services Tax）与低失业率是否分别影响了其为联合阵营与现任政府投票的决策。本次数据集的背景变量涵盖职业、年龄与性别。
