根据民调机构Utting Research对逾1000名澳大利亚一国党选民的调查，前特种部队士兵本·罗伯茨-史密斯在该党支持者中获得69%的支持率，仅次于党领导人保琳·汉森的95%1。这一支持度远高于前副总理巴纳比·乔伊斯的62%、美国总统特朗普的42%以及自由党领导人安格斯·泰勒的32%1。
罗伯茨-史密斯因获得维多利亚十字勋章而具有英雄地位1，其支持者主要为65岁以上的选民（占80%）和前自由党选民（占77%）1。一国党在法雷尔补选期间曾使用他的照片，标语为"他为我们而战。一国党与他同在"1。不过，罗伯茨-史密斯于2024年4月被逮捕，因涉嫌在2009-2012年阿富汗服役期间谋杀手无寸铁的平民而被指控犯有战争罪1。
调查还显示，91%的一国党选民认为国家走错了方向1，其中39%认为移民是主要问题，35%认为生活成本是主要问题1。
Former Special Forces soldier Ben Roberts-Smith has secured strong support among One Nation voters, commanding 69% approval in a new poll, second only to party leader Pauline Hanson's 95% 1. A survey of over 1,000 One Nation supporters by Utting Research found Roberts-Smith's popularity significantly outpaces that of former Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce, who registered 62% support, as well as U.S. President Donald Trump at 42% and Liberal Party leader Angus Taylor at 32% 1.
Roberts-Smith, a Victoria Cross recipient whose military service earned him hero status, has become a focal point in cultural debates 1. His supporters skew notably older, with 80% of his backers aged 65 and over, and predominantly comprise former Liberal Party voters at 77% 1. The strong backing reflects broader sentiment within One Nation's base, with 91% of party voters believing the nation is heading in the wrong direction 1. Among those surveyed, immigration emerged as the leading concern for 39%, while 35% cited rising living costs as their primary worry 1.
Roberts-Smith's political prominence comes amid serious legal challenges. He was arrested in April 2024 and faces war crimes charges stemming from his 2009-2012 deployment in Afghanistan, with allegations that he was involved in the killing of unarmed civilians 1. One Nation leveraged his image during the Farrell by-election campaign, using photographs alongside the slogan "He fought for us. One Nation stands with him" 1.
