Q. Do you think the current mining boom in Australia has benefited you personally?
| Total | Vote Labor | Vote Lib/Nat | Vote Greens | |
| Yes | 16% | 18% | 18% | 19% |
| No | 69% | 67% | 69% | 72% |
| Don’t know | 14% | 15% | 13% | 9% |
Only 16% agree that they have personally benefited from the mining boom and 69% think they have not benefited.
There was little difference across voter groups.
Those on higher incomes are a little more likely to say they have benefited – 24% of those earning $1,600+ per week compared to 13% of those earning less than $1,000 per week.
