Quick Hit: Right Bloc Leads Coalition Preference 45–39, NZ First Voters Lock It In

The current coalition retains the advantage on the only question that matters under MMP – who can actually form a government. The left still has significant work to do to become a credible alternative.

New Taxpayers’ Union-Curia polling shows voters still prefer the current National-ACT-NZ First coalition over a Labour-Greens-Te Pāti Māori alternative, with NZ First voters locking it in.
