Gap between left and right blocks has opened up, but NZ first seems likely to make it to parliament, which could make coalition negotiations interesting.
Labour is the big loser, and they should be asking serious questions about their campaign. Most of the other parties are fairly stable, with departing Labour voters seemingly moving fairly evenly among the other major parties.
Labour shouldn’t have run a campaign. They should have let the Green Party take their place. Having Labour run again is just embarrassing.
Marama Davidson is the best spokesperson National could ask for, in my view. They should just stand aside and let her do her thing.
The greens have 2 very good MPs in James Shaw and Chloe Swarbrick but their party is so messed up. I would not vote for them as long as they have the criteria that a co-leader needs to be a woman, and one of Māori descent.
Ouch, that hurts!
