Premier Jacinta Allan has kept her position as leader of the Victorian Labor Party after a party meeting where no official challenge to her leadership took place.

維多利亞州州長 Jacinta Allan 在一次黨內會議後，繼續擔任維州工黨領袖，會中並未出現對其領導地位的正式挑戰。

The possibility of a leadership change was reduced after Deputy Premier Ben Carroll publicly supported the Premier, stating that he is a loyal team member and has no desire to lead the party. However, the party is still divided. Because the 'Left' faction holds most of the power, it is difficult for any opposition to form, as any successful challenge would require support from the same people who put Premier Allan in power.

由於副州長 Ben Carroll 公開支持州長，表示自己是忠誠的團隊成員，且沒有領導該黨的意願，因此更換領袖的可能性降低了。然而，黨內依然分歧。由於「左翼」派系掌握大部分權力，任何反對勢力都難以形成，因為任何成功的挑戰都需要獲得將 Allan 推上權力之位的相同人士的支持。

At the same time, the party is facing pressure from outside. Luke Hilakari, Secretary of the Victorian Trades Hall, criticized how Labor candidates are interacting with voters. He warned that if they do not improve their connection with voters in key areas, union support might disappear. Furthermore, recent polling shows that the One Nation party has grown to 24 per cent support, which is almost as high as Labor and the Coalition at 26 per cent.

與此同時，該黨正承受外部壓力。維多利亞州工會大樓秘書 Luke Hilakari 批評工黨候選人與選民互動的方式。他警告，如果他們不改善與關鍵地區選民的聯繫，工會的支持可能會消失。此外，最近的民調顯示，「一國黨」的支持率已增至 24%，幾乎與工黨和聯盟黨的 26% 持平。

Finally, the government is struggling with its policy direction. Some members of the Left faction believe that changing the leader would not necessarily mean changing major projects, such as the Suburban Rail Loop. While Deputy Premier Carroll suggested a more aggressive approach to focus on security and business to stop the rise of One Nation, the meeting ended without any official change in the government's plans.

最後，政府在政策方向上陷入掙扎。部分左翼派系成員認為，更換領袖並不一定意味著要改變重大項目，例如「郊區鐵路環線」。雖然副州長 Carroll 建議採取更積極的做法，將重點放在治安與商業以遏制一國黨的崛起，但會議結束時，政府的計劃並未做出任何正式調整。

Premier Allan continues to lead the Labor Party and plans to run in the election on November 28.

州長 Allan 繼續領導工黨，並計劃參加 11 月 28 日的選舉。
