MARANOA is the only electorate in Australia that holds a majority opposition against same-sex marriage.
In the Warwick electorate more than 50 per cent of voters do not support law changes to allow same-sex couples to marry.
The Melbourne University study found Groom, Flynn, Hinkler and Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce's base in New England might oppose the change in a plebiscite scenario.
The study was based on responses to the ABC's 2013 Vote Compass survey and was weighted to reflect the demographics in each electorate.
Nationally, a third of voters were opposed to a change.
